Wealth management leaders understand that technology can determine their firm’s success or failure, according to a new survey from Wipfli, an advisory and accounting firm.

Nine in 10 wealth managers in the survey expect their firms to grow by 5% or more this year, with 36% projecting revenue growth of 8% to 10%, and 8% projecting growth of more than 10%.

At the same time, they are concerned about making the best technology investments, and they sense that rapid tech advancements are likely to play a role in future firm ownership changes.

For its report, Wipfli surveyed 109 wealth management executives across the U.S. Technology was the common theme across discussions about growth, succession and strategy.
