While mass-market fintechs like Revolut, Klarna, and Robinhood dominate headlines with their focus on streamlining finances for consumers and retail investors, UHNWIs have a fundamentally different requirement: leveraging technology to liberate themselves and their advisors to focus on the strategic decisions, relationships, and communications that humans handle better than machines.
