Welcome to Talking Wealth, where we cover the biggest trends in the wealth management industry. RIAs have evolved from mom and pop store fronts to bonafide businesses. A big part of that evolution has been powered by more technology. But one of the downsides to that is we're using in some cases literally a dozen companies or more to perform various functions. With information spread out all over the place, we've lost the ability to analyze data across platforms. And if a business can't effectively measure what counts, it has all sorts of negative knock-on effects. That's where MileMarker comes in. On today's episode, Michael Batnick talks with Kyle Van Pelt about how advisors can make sure they are able to capture and analyze all of their data to make sure their business operates as efficiently as possible.
