It's a lot, and often, operational tasks can pull you away from what you do best: advising clients and driving growth. The good news? You're not alone. More and more advisors are finding a powerful approach: investment management outsourcing. A recent AssetMark study, "[The Impact of Outsourcing](https://www.adhesionwealth.com/view-the-outsourcing-study)," surveyed nearly 700 financial advisors and revealed clear trends: those who outsource are experiencing significant enhancements across their businesses. Investment management outsourcing means delegating some, or all, of your investment management activities to a professional provider.  This isn't just about cutting costs; it's about strategically leveraging external expertise to potentially elevate your practice. **What the Data about Outsourcing Reveals** Here's what the latest research indicates about the potential benefits of outsourcing: - **Stronger Client Relationships:** Advisors who outsource gain, on average, **over nine hours per week**. A remarkable 72% reallocate this time to client-facing activities, spending an average of 5.4 more hours weekly with clients. The result? **More than 9/10 outsourcing advisors report stronger client relationships.** - **Business Growth Potential:** Outsourcing advisors saw a **14% increase in new assets** brought into their practice in 2023 (versus 11% for non-outsourcers, excluding market performance). Overall, **97% report financial benefits**. - **Enhanced Efficiency & Expertise:** Outsourcing can help save time and provide access to specialized investment expertise. **98% of outsourcers report delivering improved investment solutions** to their clients since making the switch. You may also experience faster impact to your business than if you hadn’t outsourced, with nearly half (45%) seeing benefits within six months. - **Scalability & Potential for Increased Income:** The more an advisor outsources, the greater the potential for positive outcomes. For example, **88% experienced asset growth**, **79% saw an increase in personal income**, and 77% experienced a decrease in operating costs. **![77% See An Impact Within A Year](https://resources.adhesionwealth.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Focus%20Speed%20to%20ROI%20%26%20Efficiency.png?width=500&height=500&name=Focus%20Speed%20to%20ROI%20%26%20Efficiency.png)** [**View Study**](https://www.adhesionwealth.com/view-the-outsourcing-study) **How Adhesion Wealth Can Support Your Firm** At Adhesion Wealth, we understand the unique challenges financial advisors face.
