Helping investors traverse financial markets and build their wealth during the peaks and troughs is Janus Henderson Investors head of Australia Matt Gaden's game plan. He tells Karren Vergara why in this long game of investing, active management wins.
To deliver personal value requires a different level of resource than that of selling product on its merit.
The core ingredient with fees as the man said, is value and the delivery of sustainable marketable value costs money. This will test many advisers, but if they make the transition, it will be worth it.
