It’s CU 2.0 Fintech Friday! Today, Chris Otey sits down with StackUp to discuss all things credit union, fintech, and digital innovation.
Nearly 50 million people in the United States use a financial advisor or a robo-advisor. Unfortunately, not all of those people know how their advisors are performing. Not only that, but they may actually be paying far more in fees than they thought they were.
StackUp analyzes portfolios to rate your financial advisor or robo-advisor. It uncovers hidden fees and lets you know about any negative activity or massive fee on your account. Finally, StackUp can help people understand if their advisor is right for them or if they’d be better served by another advisor.
The reason StackUp started was because as a former financial advisor, CEO and co-founder Jason Aronson became jaded by the lack of transparency between advisors and their clients. He created StackUp as a way to increase transparency in the financial advisory field. StackUp helps investors better understand their portfolios and evaluate their advisors against the field.
