Survey: Financial Advisors Gain With Shift To Customer Service

July 10, 2009 Some students enrolled in MBA programs shift their focus to finance, pursuing a finance MBA to become experts in understanding how to read the ebb and flow of the market

A recent survey by financial research company Cerulli Associates found that salaries for financial advisors have been going up in 2009 as they focus on more direct interaction with clients

As people watch their retirement savings or child's college fund shrink, they are increasingly asking advisors for solutions to help live their lives, rather than simply grow their stock
investments," said Bing Waldert, director of Cerulli Associates 

Almost half the financial advisors surveyed said that their education was an important factor in their success over the last year. "Helping clients improve their lives," was high on the list of factors that contributed to career satisfaction

A finance MBA degree is more than simply a skill set focusing on the arcane world of high finance, it can be a way to directly impact people's lives for the better. If you have a head for numbers and a desire to help people, maybe it is time to seriously look at MBA schools offering a finance MBA.
