Fidelity teams with Goldman Sachs as part of big push into alternative investments on behalf of RIAs
The Boston giant's resolute move is a 'blue-ocean' strategy that may give it an edge with advisors looking for a one-stop, one-statement approach to AI management
Fiduciary Advisor Advocate
Unbelievable- my entire view of Fidelity went right down the pooper. Understand that custodians are essentially utilities but really what kind of due diligence was done on…CAIS? Just me I guess but I would avoid investing in with anyone involved in something like that. Seriously Gary- this must be a mistake. Let’s hope your clients don’t have the same experience as FG’s client had.
