Vietnam’s German university struggles to loosen government grip
Not many academics will have heard of Vietnam’s German university, but the growing pains of the 15-year-old institution demonstrate the difficulty of reconciling starkly different academic cultures. Set up with support from the German state of Hesse and Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training, the Vietnamese-German University (VGU) near Ho Chi Minh City is modelled on German institutions and offers bachelor’s and master’s for local students.

Coastal cod (Gadus morhua) is a commercially valuable fish species and an important constituent of Norwegian coastal ecosystems (Vølstad et al., 2011; Kleiven et al., 2016).

The Crypto-Nation has Finally Hit Mother LODE
A new, silver-backed cryptocurrency aims to combine precious metals and blockchain into the money of the future. Cryptocurrency often catches flak for lacking an objective value, so could a silver-backed token be the way forward? “Advisors Magazine” recently caught up with two ambassadors from LODE, a new cryptocurrency that turns “idle silver” into electronic tokens. Gold often dominates discussions about the value of precious metals while silver gets downplayed or ignored.

Insist on Straight Talk Financial services industry insiders often throw jargon around in client meetings, newsletters, and even marketing materials – but when an advisor uses jargon, what does the client actually hear? Advisors Magazine asked advisors across the industry and across the country for their thoughts on how to relate to clients and why clear, jargon-lite communication matters, even to investors who know their way around financial concepts.
‘Turbocharge’ your 401(k) Shifting the “Buy and Hold” Paradigm
Few Americans receive unbiased, third-party help with their 401(k) plans, and some even mistakenly believe that their employer actively manages the plan for them. A new tool, however, could help 401(k) holders maneuver toward the retirement they have always dreamed of. Most people still manage their 401(k) plans through the decades-old “buy and hold” strategy, leaving them exposed to today’s faster-paced financial world.
Today’s Retirees Focus More on Wealth Management, Less on Pensions
Investors take charge Pensions once funded a majority of American workers’ retirements – at least in part. Since the 1980s, however, the pension essentially has become an endangered species, with the retirement risk shifting to individual savers via 401(k) plans and other investment products. Where the American worker once relied on a pension and Social Security to provide “mailbox money,” guaranteed to arrive every month, today’s retiree needs to take charge of their own financial future.
Empowering Clients to Make Sound Financial Decisions
Financial literacy: filling the gaps. Industry professionals tend to agree that financial literacy among investors remains surprisingly low. However, the investors who do know the basics might not be any more prepared than their peers. “Even if someone knows some of the basics: budgeting, saving, investment, and insurance, many still don’t truly understand how the pieces fit together and the value of having a financial plan,” said Ira G.
Aging Advisor Workforce Highlights Need for Succession Plans
Are advisors and investors prepared? America’s aging advisor workforce poses a challenge for investors and soon-to-be retirees who need a trusted, stable financial manager to guide them through retirement. With many advisors nearing retirement, prospective clients need to start asking about succession plans. “I would recommend asking about the professional’s depth of staff and the current succession plan within the firm,” said Patrick G.

In Financial Relationships, Trust is Key
And for Charles W. Canyock, ChFC®, RICP®, AIF®, the answer often surprises clients. “I say back to them, ‘Why should I trust you?’” said Canyock, a registered principal and wealth management advisor with LPL Financial.
Certification Chaos
Cut through the jargon – know what your advisor’s credentials mean It often looks like the average financial advisor’s business card needs a few extra lines to fit all their certifications.

Millennial Investors Stand to Profit Handsomely from
But preserving inheritance will take hard work. Millennial investors stand to collectively receive the largest inheritance in history when their parents’ generation passes on its accumulated wealth. Approximately $30 trillion will be inherited by millennials over the next two decades. And while $16 trillion belongs to ultra-high net worth individuals, the average millennial heir still could come into a significant sum from their parents’ properties.

She Says she Knows What Women Want Financial guru Suze Orman believes women bring a different mindset to the fiscal table. She argues that there's a sharp difference in how men and women invest for the future. “The most frequent question a woman will ask is, ‘How do I pay for my kid’s education?’ A man will ask, ‘What stocks are good to invest in?’” Orman told “Advisors Magazine” during a recent interview that covered women in finance, how to save, and more.
