Industry Voice: Improve your practice by challenging your biases

Have you ever had a client who insisted on holding a losing investment…or buying into the tail end of a frenzy for fear of missing out? Have you yourself made a decision with complete confidence only to have it turn out poorly? According to one adviser we spoke to by applying behavioral economics to his investment management process, he's become better able to mitigate the cognitive and emotional biases that lead to rash thinking, is more analytical and - ultimately - provides even greater value to the clients in his business.

Register for BMO Adviser Edge and learn how to challenge biases, while earning structured CPD.
