Hi UKSA Members,
I am doing research focused on private shareholders who have relatively small investments and can’t afford to have Financial Advisors looking after their investments. Stocks are considered short term investments and need regular monitoring in comparison with funds that have dedicated Fund Managers and are considered medium to long term investments. Research is targetting on identifying private shareholder trading needs and how by bringing stock brokers, shareholders, company employees to a common platform can create useful services for private shareholders. For example, how current sharedealing IT platforms can be adapted to network stockbrokers and shareholders and connect supply and demand side i.e., shareholders wanting one off advice (rather than a blanket contract for Advisory or Discretionary Services with Financial Advisors) and stockbrokers providing that advise to private shareholders to enhance their Earning Per Share or Dividend Yield. At the same time, implemeting transparency in the market where shareholders can rate services of stock brokers on ratings 1 to 5 star (just like amazon!). This research is important as currently private shareholder needs are unfulfilled and current Financial Advisors are unable to address their needs due to their expensive business models.
I was wondering if you could please spare 10 minutes to complete survey at following link:
