As robos try to crash Envestnet's platform party, CEO Jud Bergman explains pivot to 'wellness' and tells where FolioDynamix and Yodlee stand

Ric Edelman is an early Envestnet 'wellness' pilot and Yodlee's expanding margins are -- maybe -- a good sign for that unit as it moves toward break-even

The pivot to "wellness" responding to the well being of the client is very generalized attempt to addreess fiduciary duties without incurring fiduciary liability, recognizing that b/ds will not support fiduciary duties of the broker. Though it falls short of expert fiduciary standing, it is a move forward. There is no substitute for supporting the best interest of the investing public as required by statute for professional standing, "wellness" is as far as brokers can go without fulfilling their fiduciary duties which trigger fiduciary liability.

Envestnet is poor platform and unintelligent company frankly. I have been using their platform, and moving away from it as best I can, for years. They have a strange trading logic and even their top architects can't explain it well. I would use anyone else given a choice but they are my BD's platform. Miserable experience and they have created stress in my life and business to a large degree.
