As AI shifts from novelty to necessity in wealth management, the real unlock isn’t shiny tools, it’s smarter planning. Advisors need technology that compresses plan-build time, surfaces next-best actions and keeps clients engaged without losing the human in the loop. How can AI move firms from episodic planning to an additive, always-on model? By turning personalization at scale into a practical reality across the wealth stack.
In this episode, host Shannon Rosic speaks with Ken Lotocki, chief product officer of Conquest Planning, about innovations like Conquest’s Strategic Advice Manager, the role of hybrid models, and how estate and legacy planning tie into the next generation of client engagement.
They also discuss:
-
How Conquest enables advisors to spend less time on technology and more time with clients
-
How AI augments (not replaces) advisors by making planning the hub of the client journey
-
The role of AI and SAM in delivering real-time insights and additive planning
-
Why best-in-breed + open APIs beat building a CRM in-house
-
