Technology & Wealth
It doesn’t seem all that long ago that when we talked about technology and its promises, we were talking about the future. Now, any examination of technological progress is firmly rooted in the present. Just about every activity of daily living, and every sector of the economy, is being transformed (or has already been transformed) by high-tech wizardry.
But how are these changes and advances affecting your financial life on a day-to-day basis, and what opportunities could they present for your investment strategy? In this issue of Insights, we look at these very questions. “Technology and Your Wealth” (page 6) offers business insights on how rapid technological change might be affecting the way you invest and the way you interact with your finances. “Investing in Innovation” (page 4) looks at where investors might look to capture growth in both the technology sector and other industries being influenced by technological advances. Meanwhile, “Optimizing Your Online Presence” (page 10) helps business owners navigate the many decisions about digital versus hands-on customer service and marketing.
Other articles come down to earth. “Sometimes It Does Grow on Trees” (page 2) shows how natural-resource-based assets—like timber or mineral rights—might fit into a diversified portfolio, while “All That Sparkles” (page 1) explores some of the pros and cons of investing in assets like art, jewelry, and vintage cars.
Regardless of your collecting passion, our Wealth Advisors can help you find ways to keep your financial life on track and aligned with your goals.
