Advisers’ entire tech stack will collapse in the next two years; that is the bold prediction of Paradino AI Co-Founder and CEO Alex Gassner.
He sees the glaring gap between the 15,000 financial advisers in Australia and those 16 million Australian’s who need advice, as being closed in one way only- by purpose-built AI tools.
Courtenay Fox, Co-Founder of Fox & Hare Financial, knows this firsthand.
After testing around 10 AI tools before narrowing it down, her firm now runs AI across everything from file notes and paraplanning to document review and client communications. No client data goes into any general LLM tool.
In this interview, Gassner and Fox outline why purpose-built AI is set to transform the advice industry, how Fox & Hare are already putting it into practice, and what every adviser needs to know about data security, liability and the looming advice gap.
