What if the greatest value of working with a financial advisor has little to do with picking the right investments?
In the latest episode of The Rogé Standard, Steven Rogé, CFP®, and Christopher M. Kehoe, CFA®, explore what investors actually get when they work with a financial advisor. Using Russell Investments’ 2026 “Value of an Advisor” study, they examine four areas where professional guidance can make a difference: asset allocation, behavioral coaching, personalized wealth planning, and tax-smart investing.
The study estimates 4.92% in potential annual value from these combined services, but the largest component may surprise you. They also discuss something that’s much harder to quantify: the peace of mind that comes from having a plan, a sounding board, and someone looking out for your financial well-being.
