| Abstract: | The ever growing fintech industry produced one of the biggest changes in the asset management industry this century; robo-advisors. The implementation of robo-advisors has already had a huge impact on the investment advisory industry, with the assets under management by robo-advisors expected to reach more than $2,5 trillion USD this year. Though, weirdly enough, a lot of people are still not very familiar with the concept of robo-advisors. Furthermore, there are still many possible flaws in the robo-advisor industry. This study aims at investing one of these flaws, being the efficacy of robo-advisors. Robo-advisors create and manage portfolios based on algorithms that turn input data from users into a risk profile, consequently resulting in a portfolio. This study will use 3 robo-advisory platforms to investigate the efficacy problems of this new advisory service. Why do different platforms create different portfolios for the exact same risk profile? That is the question that will be investigated in this study. |
