Robo Advisory Customer Groups: Who Requires Advice?

Justus Blaschke and Johannes Kriebel

Die Unternehmung - Swiss Journal of Business Research and Practice, 2021, vol. 75, issue 3, 397-410

Abstract: Prior literature has often investigated how robo advisors can broaden their customer base. This study is based on the observation that some customers value the risk elicitation of robo advisors (guidance customers), whereas others value other aspects such as the simplicity and convenience of these services. Based on empirical robo advisory data, we build machine learning models to identify guidance customers. The models make predictions based on the financial knowledge of customers to a large extent. The age of a customer, the amount invested, income, and available assets are further important determinants.
