00:05:44,754 –> 00:05:51,205
[paul_tyler]: or our space now discover ability has
been enormously important in driving f i a
269
00:05:51,325 –> 00:05:55,172
[paul_tyler]: sales and you know ramsey if you
think back to the first
270
00:05:55,061 –> 00:05:55,308
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
271
00:05:55,713 –> 00:05:57,636
[paul_tyler]: fixed into excanuities i think everybody
272
00:05:57,971 –> 00:05:58,131
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
273
00:05:57,997 –> 00:06:01,382
[paul_tyler]: is kind of like you know buying
one of these things was like buying a
274
00:06:01,482 –> 00:06:05,830
[paul_tyler]: model t ford right you got the
s and p five hundred you had you
275
00:06:05,951 –> 00:06:06,821
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
276
00:06:06,110 –> 00:06:08,173
[paul_tyler]: a hundred different ways to calculate
277
00:06:07,871 –> 00:06:08,471
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
278
00:06:08,294 –> 00:06:13,482
[paul_tyler]: performance but it really was built around
one fun now along come some innovators in
279
00:06:13,522 –> 00:06:18,090
[paul_tyler]: this space and we start to introduce
some of these bespoke funds and the first
280
00:06:18,130 –> 00:06:22,337
[paul_tyler]: thing you know first complaint we heard
advisers in the space was their clients couldn’t
281
00:06:22,437 –> 00:06:28,688
[paul_tyler]: find the values you know it was
it was you know some of these earlier
282
00:06:29,209 –> 00:06:30,691
[paul_tyler]: newer products had you know
283
00:06:30,671 –> 00:06:30,851
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
284
00:06:30,791 –> 00:06:35,908
[paul_tyler]: ramsey like i don’t know is it
fair to call them undiscoverable disease to start
285
00:06:36,425 –> 00:06:40,454
[ramsey_d_smith]: well i mean they were they were
industries that were built from scratch and so
286
00:06:40,635 –> 00:06:42,058
[ramsey_d_smith]: we built them from just
287
00:06:41,943 –> 00:06:43,203
[paul_tyler]: yeah
288
00:06:42,178 –> 00:06:45,344
[ramsey_d_smith]: for the for the benefit of the
audience this is a business that i was
289
00:06:45,404 –> 00:06:48,610
[ramsey_d_smith]: involved in at my in a prior
career but so we had to come up
290
00:06:48,690 –> 00:06:52,997
[ramsey_d_smith]: with an index and we had to
come up with a way of sharing the
291
00:06:53,037 –> 00:06:54,780
[ramsey_d_smith]: values of that index sort of
292
00:06:54,795 –> 00:06:54,815
[paul_tyler]: a
293
00:06:55,121 –> 00:07:00,830
[ramsey_d_smith]: audley and so that was not a
trivial thing so ultimately the service that that
294
00:07:01,010 –> 00:07:05,257
[ramsey_d_smith]: that aden and ben are providing with
n f n are really quite
295
00:07:05,172 –> 00:07:05,193
[paul_tyler]: m
296
00:07:05,318 –> 00:07:07,986
[ramsey_d_smith]: crucial because it was not an easy
thing get the visibility
297
00:07:07,683 –> 00:07:07,927
[paul_tyler]: yeah
298
00:07:08,047 –> 00:07:09,476
[ramsey_d_smith]: in a lot of different places for
299
00:07:09,411 –> 00:07:09,691
[Ben Jones]: and that’s
300
00:07:09,536 –> 00:07:09,717
[ramsey_d_smith]: sure
301
00:07:09,711 –> 00:07:12,195

303
00:07:12,256 –> 00:07:14,319

[Ben Jones]: portfolio is basically
363
00:08:25,443 –> 00:08:25,463
[paul_tyler]: m
364
00:08:25,562 –> 00:08:26,063
[Ben Jones]: like a paper

[ramsey_d_smith]: m
366
00:08:26,183 –> 00:08:31,532
[Ben Jones]: portfolio that a strategist or portfolio manager

a lot of
373
00:08:44,922 –> 00:08:44,943
[paul_tyler]: m

[Ben Jones]: and asset
377
00:08:46,563 –> 00:08:46,583
[paul_tyler]: m
378
00:08:46,700 –> 00:08:47,341
[Ben Jones]: managers have
379
00:08:47,343 –> 00:08:47,588

[paul_tyler]: oh
386
00:08:53,794 –> 00:08:58,281

who’s talking about a model strategy and the
387
00:08:58,301 –> 00:08:59,002
[Ben Jones]: individual investor
388

[aidan_shue]: you know
474
00:10:22,433 –> 00:10:24,536
[ramsey_d_smith]: meaningful because we had a situation
475
00:10:24,213 –> 00:10:24,579
[paul_tyler]: oh
476
00:10:24,617 –> 00:10:25,698
[ramsey_d_smith]: once we created an index
477
00:10:25,629 –> 00:10:25,830
[Ben Jones]: yeah
478
00:10:26,199 –> 00:10:27,682
[ramsey_d_smith]: and we were calling who financed
479
00:10:27,363 –> 00:10:28,000
[paul_tyler]: ye
480
00:10:27,722 –> 00:10:30,987
[ramsey_d_smith]: separately and we were calling market watch
separately
481
00:10:30,810 –> 00:10:31,070
[Ben Jones]: oh
482
00:10:30,963 –> 00:10:31,773
[paul_tyler]: oh
483
00:10:31,187 –> 00:10:33,551
[ramsey_d_smith]: and like you know it was
484
00:10:33,510 –> 00:10:33,818
[Ben Jones]: oh
485
00:10:33,672 –> 00:10:34,954
[ramsey_d_smith]: very difficult to get somebody
486
00:10:34,800 –> 00:10:35,022
[Ben Jones]: yeah
487
00:10:34,994 –> 00:10:35,795
[ramsey_d_smith]: that actually could make
488
00:10:35,760 –> 00:10:35,940
[Ben Jones]: oh
489
00:10:35,835 –> 00:10:40,062
[ramsey_d_smith]: a decision to push the information through

490
00:10:40,020 –> 00:10:40,541
[Ben Jones]: oh
491
00:10:40,122 –> 00:10:42,286
[ramsey_d_smith]: guys are a short cut through all
that across
492
00:10:42,342 –> 00:10:42,363
[paul_tyler]: m
493
00:10:43,187 –> 00:10:44,049
[ramsey_d_smith]: it the whole spectrum
494
00:10:43,788 –> 00:10:43,908
[Ben Jones]: that
495
00:10:44,109 –> 00:10:44,149
[ramsey_d_smith]: of
496
00:10:45,150 –> 00:10:45,310
[Ben Jones]: that’s
497
00:10:45,213 –> 00:10:45,721
[ramsey_d_smith]: of publishers
498
00:10:45,350 –> 00:10:47,053
[Ben Jones]: why we’re here right i think but
but it
499
00:10:47,042 –> 00:10:47,427
[aidan_shue]: exactly
500
00:10:47,133 –> 00:10:47,734
[Ben Jones]: does open
501
00:10:47,501 –> 00:10:48,671
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
502
00:10:47,814 –> 00:10:48,896
[Ben Jones]: up some some questions
503
00:10:49,031 –> 00:10:49,051
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
504
00:10:49,036 –> 00:10:50,458
[Ben Jones]: right because you know
505
00:10:50,758 –> 00:10:51,341
[ramsey_d_smith]: hm
506
00:10:50,959 –> 00:10:51,680
[Ben Jones]: a managed account
507
00:10:51,701 –> 00:10:52,751
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
508
00:10:51,741 –> 00:10:53,063
[Ben Jones]: is very different than less say a
structured
509
00:10:52,871 –> 00:10:53,076

[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
607
00:13:00,982 –> 00:13:04,588
[Ben Jones]: changing in the way that you know
that performance can be kind
608
00:13:04,481 –> 00:13:04,802
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
609
00:13:04,608 –> 00:13:06,090

[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
623
00:13:18,520 –> 00:13:20,083

720
00:15:21,151 –> 00:15:21,531
[Ben Jones]: basically
721
00:15:21,368 –> 00:15:21,428
[aidan_shue]: it
722
00:15:21,692 –> 00:15:22,774
[Ben Jones]: you know it’s a performance standards
723
00:15:22,841 –> 00:15:23,531
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
724
00:15:22,854 –> 00:15:23,174

[Ben Jones]: it is
727
00:15:24,511 –> 00:15:25,451
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
728
00:15:24,757 –> 00:15:28,363
[Ben Jones]: brought by the c f a supervides
performance standards and audited for
729
00:15:28,653 –> 00:15:28,957
[paul_tyler]: oh
730
00:15:28,832 –> 00:15:28,893
[ramsey_d_smith]: we
731
00:15:28,844 –> 00:15:29,986
[Ben Jones]: um as managers
732
00:15:29,861 –> 00:15:30,104
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
733
00:15:30,046 –> 00:15:33,391
[Ben Jones]: are a separately managed account so it’s
a standardized way reporting performance
734
00:15:32,992 –> 00:15:33,012
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
735
00:15:34,032 –> 00:15:34,173
[Ben Jones]: and
736
00:15:34,100 –> 00:15:34,121
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
737
00:15:34,373 –> 00:15:34,553
[Ben Jones]: you know
738
00:15:34,542 –> 00:15:34,563
[paul_tyler]: m
739
00:15:34,593 –> 00:15:35,835
[Ben Jones]: what we’re trying to make sure is
that these
740
00:15:35,711 –> 00:15:35,732
[paul_tyler]: i
741
00:15:36,036 –> 00:15:39,501
[Ben Jones]: you know firms are kind of vetted
right and so by having this kind
742
00:15:39,434 –> 00:15:39,454
[aidan_shue]: a
743
00:15:39,561 –> 00:15:44,169
[Ben Jones]: of compliance you know box checked we
know that you know these models have gone
744
00:15:44,189 –> 00:15:44,370
[Ben Jones]: through
745
00:15:44,373 –> 00:15:44,761
[paul_tyler]: oh
746
00:15:44,490 –> 00:15:48,016
[Ben Jones]: auditing process and so that’s one standard
we have for the models with mutual
747
00:15:48,043 –> 00:15:48,187
[aidan_shue]: yeah
748
00:15:48,076 –> 00:15:49,458
[Ben Jones]: funds you have to be you know
an investment
749
00:15:49,481 –> 00:15:49,783
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
750
00:15:49,518 –> 00:15:52,082
[Ben Jones]: company you have to be mutuafun company
you same
751
00:15:52,001 –> 00:15:52,021
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
752
00:15:52,122 –> 00:15:56,209
[Ben Jones]: thing with t structure products etcetera so
there is like a veting process
753
00:15:55,850 –> 00:15:55,871
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
754
00:15:56,730 –> 00:16:01,037
[Ben Jones]: and so and also operationally like we
need to make sure that you know we
755
00:16:01,157 –> 00:16:04,283
[Ben Jones]: have these operational processes and checks in
place and so
756
00:16:04,370 –> 00:16:04,391
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
757
00:16:04,804 –> 00:16:08,149
[Ben Jones]: we can’t serve everyone but we are
able to serve those that were able
758
00:16:08,103 –> 00:16:08,123
[paul_tyler]: m
759
00:16:08,209 –> 00:16:10,774
[Ben Jones]: to get the data from that have
gone
760
00:16:10,631 –> 00:16:11,621
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
761
00:16:10,814 –> 00:16:11,715
[Ben Jones]: through some some different
762
00:16:12,161 –> 00:16:12,402
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
763
00:16:12,256 –> 00:16:15,862
[Ben Jones]: check boxes on our side and then
we’re able to get that data out there
764
00:16:15,942 –> 00:16:19,588
[Ben Jones]: right so you know we’re not just
going to take you know anyone off the
765
00:16:19,628 –> 00:16:22,132
[Ben Jones]: street right so go through some processes
there
766
00:16:22,413 –> 00:16:22,554
[paul_tyler]: ye
767
00:16:22,934 –> 00:16:23,615
[Ben Jones]: but in terms of
768
00:16:23,673 –> 00:16:25,023
[paul_tyler]: yeah
769
00:16:23,795 –> 00:16:25,157
[Ben Jones]: you know standardizing it as long
770
00:16:25,113 –> 00:16:26,133
[paul_tyler]: oh
771
00:16:25,178 –> 00:16:25,678
[Ben Jones]: as we get a data
772
00:16:25,511 –> 00:16:25,813
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
773
00:16:25,999 –> 00:16:26,981
[Ben Jones]: and we’re able to capture
774
00:16:26,780 –> 00:16:26,921
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
775
00:16:27,021 –> 00:16:30,707
[Ben Jones]: it and then put a identifier on
it and then distribute
776
00:16:30,418 –> 00:16:30,438
[paul_tyler]: a
777
00:16:30,747 –> 00:16:34,453
[Ben Jones]: it you that’s what we provide from
a standpoint we serve both right so you
778
00:16:34,513 –> 00:16:38,039
[Ben Jones]: know there is a registration fee you
know for these investment products and then there’s
779
00:16:38,079 –> 00:16:38,900
[Ben Jones]: also you know some
780
00:16:38,766 –> 00:16:38,786
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
781
00:16:39,061 –> 00:16:39,882
[Ben Jones]: data fees you know
782
00:16:39,800 –> 00:16:39,821
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
783
00:16:40,102 –> 00:16:40,643
[Ben Jones]: downstream
784
00:16:40,692 –> 00:16:40,713
[paul_tyler]: m
785
00:16:40,763 –> 00:16:41,685
[Ben Jones]: right because there is
786
00:16:41,981 –> 00:16:42,262
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
787
00:16:42,206 –> 00:16:44,370
[Ben Jones]: complex process of capturing the day

[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
791
00:16:45,012 –> 00:16:46,217
[Ben Jones]: data and then distributing the data
792
00:16:46,422 –> 00:16:46,443
[paul_tyler]: m
793
00:16:47,321 –> 00:16:48,311

815
00:17:01,203 –> 00:17:02,607
[paul_tyler]: yah oh
816
00:17:02,345 –> 00:17:03,326
[Ben Jones]: you know the downstream
817
00:17:03,993 –> 00:17:04,013
[paul_tyler]: m
818
00:17:04,027 –> 00:17:06,292
[Ben Jones]: investment platform and the vendors
819
00:17:05,835 –> 00:17:05,856
[paul_tyler]: i
820
00:17:06,412 –> 00:17:09,178
[Ben Jones]: and the investors right and i think
that’s the key is that
821
00:17:09,221 –> 00:17:09,461
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
822
00:17:09,890 –> 00:17:14,132
[Ben Jones]: there needs to be transparency in this
industry we’re not the only ones who have
823
00:17:14,172 –> 00:17:16,295
[Ben Jones]: that mission right there’s a lot of
firms
824
00:17:16,173 –> 00:17:16,456
[paul_tyler]: oh
825
00:17:16,395 –> 00:17:21,784
[Ben Jones]: out there either data vendors or practitioners
we’re just part of that equation right where
826
00:17:22,233 –> 00:17:22,477
[paul_tyler]: oh
827
00:17:22,265 –> 00:17:24,008
[Ben Jones]: we believe that these strategies
828
00:17:23,973 –> 00:17:24,693
[paul_tyler]: oh
829
00:17:24,148 –> 00:17:25,250

[aidan_shue]: oh
831
00:17:25,731 –> 00:17:29,677
[Ben Jones]: and discovered on a even playing field
and you know some strategies need
832
00:17:29,681 –> 00:17:30,205
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
833
00:17:29,998 –> 00:17:33,644
[Ben Jones]: to be behind closed doors if ye’re
kind of institutional or black box potentially
834
00:17:33,327 –> 00:17:34,253
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah oh
835
00:17:34,065 –> 00:17:36,930
[Ben Jones]: but the majority of them are being
used by a retail investor i can’t stray
836
00:17:37,010 –> 00:17:40,836
[Ben Jones]: that enough right i think about this
investors in the united states are relying

00:17:40,841 –> 00:17:42,281
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
838
00:17:40,876 –> 00:17:43,681

[paul_tyler]: m
840
00:17:44,101 –> 00:17:45,744
[Ben Jones]: their strategies either on their
841
00:17:45,592 –> 00:17:45,776

[ramsey_d_smith]: m
966
00:20:41,282 –> 00:20:45,309

and fine performance and maybe having a single
967
00:20:45,329 –> 00:20:50,057
[Ben Jones]: identifyer there would improve the user experience

00:22:02,024 –> 00:22:06,752
[Ben Jones]: investors are kind of investing i think
that’s where the opportunity and the elephant
1019
00:22:06,551 –> 00:22:06,831
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1020
00:22:06,792 –> 00:22:09,697
[Ben Jones]: in the room is you know the
retirement space and so
1021
00:22:10,323 –> 00:22:10,564
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1022
00:22:10,478 –> 00:22:11,860
[Ben Jones]: i think the opportunities for us is
1023
00:22:11,791 –> 00:22:11,952
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1024
00:22:11,900 –> 00:22:15,366
[Ben Jones]: that you know you again i’m not
going to get ramsey and
1025
00:22:15,333 –> 00:22:15,354
[ramsey_d_smith]: i
1026
00:22:15,546 –> 00:22:15,686
[Ben Jones]: paul
1027
00:22:15,601 –> 00:22:15,642
[ramsey_d_smith]: do
1028
00:22:15,747 –> 00:22:18,611
[Ben Jones]: you know that’s better but i did
see a headline something that we are exploring
1029
00:22:18,651 –> 00:22:20,274
[Ben Jones]: but you know we’re beginning to see
1030
00:22:20,411 –> 00:22:20,654
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1031
00:22:21,123 –> 00:22:21,391
[paul_tyler]: my
1032
00:22:21,176 –> 00:22:23,720
[Ben Jones]: other types of investment vehicles being used
in retirement
1033
00:22:23,441 –> 00:22:24,131
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1034
00:22:23,760 –> 00:22:28,308
[Ben Jones]: accounts right i think annuities being one
of them and so if that’s the case
1035
00:22:28,388 –> 00:22:31,313
[Ben Jones]: you know we need to have standardized
identification process
1036
00:22:31,241 –> 00:22:32,171
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1037
00:22:31,393 –> 00:22:31,533
[Ben Jones]: for
1038
00:22:31,572 –> 00:22:31,593
[paul_tyler]: m
1039
00:22:31,593 –> 00:22:36,621
[Ben Jones]: these new investment vehicles in these new
accounts right we were able to aid
1040
00:22:36,641 –> 00:22:37,422
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1041
00:22:36,661 –> 00:22:39,426
[Ben Jones]: and can go into really in depth
about this but the c
1042
00:22:39,522 –> 00:22:39,707
[aidan_shue]: yeah
1043
00:22:39,566 –> 00:22:40,788
[Ben Jones]: i t is a colectivinvestment trust
1044
00:22:40,830 –> 00:22:41,111
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1045
00:22:40,929 –> 00:22:46,375
[Ben Jones]: right there no really central identification for
these cits and so n f n you
1046
00:22:46,395 –> 00:22:48,637
[Ben Jones]: know brought that service to market eight
and if you want to go in
1047
00:22:48,611 –> 00:22:48,792
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1048
00:22:48,677 –> 00:22:50,319
[Ben Jones]: there i mean that’s that’s important too
1049
00:22:50,409 –> 00:22:53,212
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah ah oh
1050
00:22:53,385 –> 00:22:53,612
[paul_tyler]: yea
1051
00:22:53,662 –> 00:22:56,487
[aidan_shue]: yeah i think the opportunity for for
annuities is very similar
1052
00:22:56,471 –> 00:22:56,772
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah
1053
00:22:56,567 –> 00:22:58,750
[aidan_shue]: to kind of what what happened with
cits
1054
00:22:58,320 –> 00:22:58,460
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah
1055
00:22:58,811 –> 00:23:01,735
[aidan_shue]: you know the plan participants need to
have access to those
1056
00:23:01,773 –> 00:23:02,122
[paul_tyler]: oh
1057
00:23:02,256 –> 00:23:04,800
[aidan_shue]: c i t plans regardless of whether
you know they’re trading
1058
00:23:04,577 –> 00:23:04,597
[paul_tyler]: m
1059
00:23:04,841 –> 00:23:07,017
[aidan_shue]: them on it a daily basis they’re
obviously not
1060
00:23:07,061 –> 00:23:07,322
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1061
00:23:08,283 –> 00:23:11,006
[aidan_shue]: but you know that exact same way
you know cits
1062
00:23:10,920 –> 00:23:11,040
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1063
00:23:11,166 –> 00:23:14,671
[aidan_shue]: they started moving down market into kind
of the small and medium sized plans
1064
00:23:15,260 –> 00:23:15,281
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
1065
00:23:15,472 –> 00:23:16,414
[aidan_shue]: company started lowering
1066
00:23:16,361 –> 00:23:17,390
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1067
00:23:16,474 –> 00:23:17,796
[aidan_shue]: minimum and they just became a lot
1068
00:23:17,681 –> 00:23:17,922
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1069
00:23:17,876 –> 00:23:19,158
[aidan_shue]: more prevalent in four one k
1070
00:23:19,190 –> 00:23:19,331
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1071
00:23:19,359 –> 00:23:19,679
[aidan_shue]: plans
1072
00:23:20,471 –> 00:23:20,672
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1073
00:23:20,661 –> 00:23:22,704
[aidan_shue]: that seems to be kind of the
trajectory for
1074
00:23:22,610 –> 00:23:22,631
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
1075
00:23:23,085 –> 00:23:24,747
[aidan_shue]: annuities as well and so
1076
00:23:24,762 –> 00:23:24,905
[ramsey_d_smith]: yes
1077
00:23:24,908 –> 00:23:30,297
[aidan_shue]: to have that transparency where the record
keeps s are you know incorporating these searchable
1078
00:23:30,378 –> 00:23:30,758
[aidan_shue]: symbols
1079
00:23:30,805 –> 00:23:31,030
[paul_tyler]: okay
1080
00:23:30,858 –> 00:23:33,303
[aidan_shue]: in their in their marketing materials
1081
00:23:33,575 –> 00:23:33,657
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah
1082
00:23:33,984 –> 00:23:37,451
[aidan_shue]: fact sheets and things like that you
know that’s that’s important
1083
00:23:38,049 –> 00:23:38,070
[Ben Jones]: m
1084
00:23:38,123 –> 00:23:38,626
[aidan_shue]: so i see i
1085
00:23:38,591 –> 00:23:38,893
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1086
00:23:38,706 –> 00:23:42,979
[aidan_shue]: see a very similar trajectory as thousand
cits
1087
00:23:44,004 –> 00:23:44,847
[paul_tyler]: ramsey do agree
1088
00:23:45,493 –> 00:23:49,660
[ramsey_d_smith]: sure i agree completely i mean i
guess i’ll start with the notion that that
1089
00:23:50,321 –> 00:23:50,701
[ramsey_d_smith]: the entire
1090
00:23:50,643 –> 00:23:50,884
[paul_tyler]: oh
1091
00:23:50,762 –> 00:23:57,813
[ramsey_d_smith]: four n k industry has there’s very
little penetration in it from from um guaranteed
1092
00:23:57,853 –> 00:24:04,164
[ramsey_d_smith]: income solutions so i and my company
were a very strong believer that that that
1093
00:24:04,224 –> 00:24:07,289
[ramsey_d_smith]: needs to change we also think that
that it needs to be part of the
1094
00:24:07,329 –> 00:24:09,172
[ramsey_d_smith]: default so that
1095
00:24:09,201 –> 00:24:09,303
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1096
00:24:09,252 –> 00:24:11,416
[ramsey_d_smith]: you know that you will the default
1097
00:24:11,493 –> 00:24:11,754
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1098
00:24:11,496 –> 00:24:14,902
[ramsey_d_smith]: strategy is usually a target date fund
we think those target date pons should include
1099
00:24:15,093 –> 00:24:15,319
[paul_tyler]: yes
1100
00:24:15,803 –> 00:24:18,888
[ramsey_d_smith]: an innuiting component we think that the
delivery methods
1101
00:24:18,900 –> 00:24:19,126
[Ben Jones]: yeah
1102
00:24:18,949 –> 00:24:19,570
[ramsey_d_smith]: should be through c
1103
00:24:19,662 –> 00:24:19,683
[paul_tyler]: m
1104
00:24:19,730 –> 00:24:26,722
[ramsey_d_smith]: i t because they’re most cost effective
and because there’s an ongoing management need right
1105
00:24:27,683 –> 00:24:32,291
[ramsey_d_smith]: essentially there’s a glide path that you
have to manage and adjust you know on
1106
00:24:32,591 –> 00:24:33,593
[ramsey_d_smith]: a very regular basis
1107
00:24:33,393 –> 00:24:33,634
[paul_tyler]: oh
1108
00:24:33,673 –> 00:24:39,282
[ramsey_d_smith]: and you need sort of daily daily
information passing from record keepers to glide path
1109
00:24:39,343 –> 00:24:42,868
[ramsey_d_smith]: managers to all the various sort of
folks in the in the value chain there
1110
00:24:43,590 –> 00:24:48,959
[ramsey_d_smith]: and to be to do that based
on a an efficient and efficient way of
1111
00:24:49,039 –> 00:24:53,987
[ramsey_d_smith]: actually one determining value and to being
able to dissource it and find it it
1112
00:24:54,167 –> 00:24:57,593
[ramsey_d_smith]: makes all the sense in the world
so one of the things that that i
1113
00:24:57,653 –> 00:25:01,700
[ramsey_d_smith]: think is often lost in this industry
is that is that we spent a lot
1114
00:25:01,740 –> 00:25:08,111
[ramsey_d_smith]: of time creating really interesting and complex
machines if you will or products but ultimate
1115
00:25:09,693 –> 00:25:09,974
[ramsey_d_smith]: a lot
1116
00:25:09,822 –> 00:25:09,843
[paul_tyler]: m
1117
00:25:10,014 –> 00:25:12,217
[ramsey_d_smith]: of what customers want and frankly
1118
00:25:12,093 –> 00:25:13,143
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1119
00:25:12,257 –> 00:25:15,663
[ramsey_d_smith]: a lot of intermediaries want is just
to be able to see what’s going on
1120
00:25:15,723 –> 00:25:17,366
[ramsey_d_smith]: when it’s going on and so that
1121
00:25:17,463 –> 00:25:18,123
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1122
00:25:17,526 –> 00:25:19,630
[ramsey_d_smith]: that simple element of transparency
1123
00:25:18,963 –> 00:25:20,043
[paul_tyler]: oh
1124
00:25:19,690 –> 00:25:19,950
[ramsey_d_smith]: i think
1125
00:25:19,952 –> 00:25:19,972
[aidan_shue]: m
1126
00:25:21,052 –> 00:25:22,394
[ramsey_d_smith]: way more sort of primal
1127
00:25:22,203 –> 00:25:23,313
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1128
00:25:22,474 –> 00:25:24,077
[ramsey_d_smith]: to the success of everything we’re trying
to
1129
00:25:24,102 –> 00:25:24,123
[paul_tyler]: m
1130
00:25:24,137 –> 00:25:30,147
[ramsey_d_smith]: do than sometimes we as an industry
realized so you know i’ll say ut to
1131
00:25:30,207 –> 00:25:31,269
[ramsey_d_smith]: say that i’m a believer in what
1132
00:25:31,269 –> 00:25:31,290
[Ben Jones]: m
1133
00:25:31,309 –> 00:25:32,792
[ramsey_d_smith]: you’re what you’re doing because i think
it’s
1134
00:25:32,974 –> 00:25:33,074
[paul_tyler]: ah
1135
00:25:33,213 –> 00:25:35,077
[ramsey_d_smith]: super important i think lack of transparency
1136
00:25:34,563 –> 00:25:34,843
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1137
00:25:35,157 –> 00:25:36,139
[ramsey_d_smith]: kills a lot of great ideas
1138
00:25:36,485 –> 00:25:37,626
[paul_tyler]: yeah and i’ll
1139
00:25:37,571 –> 00:25:38,441
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1140
00:25:37,646 –> 00:25:39,768
[paul_tyler]: just add on it’s time for our
conversation
1141
00:25:39,701 –> 00:25:40,691
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1142
00:25:39,828 –> 00:25:41,751
[paul_tyler]: is great you know we just did
a survey of all our
1143
00:25:41,750 –> 00:25:41,771
[ramsey_d_smith]: m
1144
00:25:41,791 –> 00:25:42,972
[paul_tyler]: top producers around
1145
00:25:42,821 –> 00:25:43,082
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1146
00:25:43,963 –> 00:25:46,847
[paul_tyler]: what’s make driving them to make recommendations
1147
00:25:46,871 –> 00:25:47,113
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1148
00:25:48,230 –> 00:25:51,715
[paul_tyler]: what makes them feel more comfortable with
making one strategy
1149
00:25:51,341 –> 00:25:52,121
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1150
00:25:51,796 –> 00:25:54,420
[paul_tyler]: recommendation versus another and there’s
1151
00:25:54,371 –> 00:25:55,031
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1152
00:25:54,460 –> 00:25:59,128
[paul_tyler]: been a lot of pressure from some
of our distributors to make it very transparent
1153
00:25:59,328 –> 00:26:01,271
[paul_tyler]: as to renewal rates on
1154
00:26:01,481 –> 00:26:02,261
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1155
00:26:01,852 –> 00:26:09,726
[paul_tyler]: different crediting strategies so that’s that whole
another convert ation here but i’m curious if
1156
00:26:09,766 –> 00:26:13,091
[paul_tyler]: you if you went through i don’t
know how many how many f is you
1157
00:26:13,111 –> 00:26:15,816
[paul_tyler]: think there are today i think i’ve
seen some huge numbers there must be
1158
00:26:16,611 –> 00:26:16,791
[ramsey_d_smith]: there
1159
00:26:16,717 –> 00:26:16,837
[paul_tyler]: what
1160
00:26:16,831 –> 00:26:17,672
[ramsey_d_smith]: have to be hundreds
1161
00:26:17,999 –> 00:26:18,480
[paul_tyler]: hunters will
1162
00:26:18,514 –> 00:26:18,614
[ramsey_d_smith]: yea
1163
00:26:18,520 –> 00:26:19,021
[paul_tyler]: say there two
1164
00:26:19,075 –> 00:26:19,175
[ramsey_d_smith]: yea
1165
00:26:19,101 –> 00:26:25,532
[paul_tyler]: hunder two hon each one may have
at least five strategies at this point right
1166
00:26:25,632 –> 00:26:28,857
[paul_tyler]: so we’re talking the magnate of at
least a couple of maybe a thousand
1167
00:26:28,571 –> 00:26:28,732
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1168
00:26:28,897 –> 00:26:30,079
[paul_tyler]: two thousand different strategies
1169
00:26:30,491 –> 00:26:31,241
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1170
00:26:30,580 –> 00:26:34,906
[paul_tyler]: you know ben what’s the penetre and
like can i what percentage do you think
1171
00:26:34,987 –> 00:26:38,932
[paul_tyler]: of these strategians inside f is are
running though your network at this point
1172
00:26:39,122 –> 00:26:39,349
[aidan_shue]: oh
1173
00:26:39,190 –> 00:26:41,193
[Ben Jones]: so so right now i
1174
00:26:41,171 –> 00:26:42,071
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1175
00:26:41,233 –> 00:26:42,616
[Ben Jones]: think we’re ating like less than
1176
00:26:42,782 –> 00:26:43,412

00:26:45,843 –> 00:26:45,863
[paul_tyler]: m
1179
00:26:46,262 –> 00:26:47,043
[Ben Jones]: that are
1180
00:26:46,762 –> 00:26:46,927
[aidan_shue]: yeah
1181
00:26:47,163 –> 00:26:48,065
[Ben Jones]: registered on the nasac
1182
00:26:47,832 –> 00:26:47,853
[paul_tyler]: m
1183
00:26:48,145 –> 00:26:48,285
[Ben Jones]: fund
1184
00:26:48,243 –> 00:26:48,503
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1185
00:26:48,345 –> 00:26:52,773
[Ben Jones]: network and have their data being dust
but ed or more importantly have their data
1186
00:26:53,153 –> 00:26:55,057
[Ben Jones]: kind of connected with a central
1187
00:26:55,023 –> 00:26:55,266
[paul_tyler]: oh
1188
00:26:55,177 –> 00:26:55,778
[Ben Jones]: identifyer
1189
00:26:55,923 –> 00:26:56,853
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1190
00:26:56,470 –> 00:26:57,191
[Ben Jones]: published by n
1191
00:26:57,303 –> 00:26:58,533
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1192
00:26:57,311 –> 00:26:58,954
[Ben Jones]: f n so i think the penetration
right now
1193
00:26:58,953 –> 00:26:59,135
[paul_tyler]: oh
1194
00:26:58,974 –> 00:26:59,555
[Ben Jones]: is really low
1195
00:26:59,853 –> 00:27:00,035
[ramsey_d_smith]: trace
1196
00:26:59,855 –> 00:27:01,017
[Ben Jones]: i would argue but i think
1197
00:27:01,013 –> 00:27:01,175
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1198
00:27:01,077 –> 00:27:01,658
[Ben Jones]: the good news is
1199
00:27:01,742 –> 00:27:01,904
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1200
00:27:01,758 –> 00:27:02,820
[Ben Jones]: paul is that it’s growing
1201
00:27:02,853 –> 00:27:03,095
[paul_tyler]: oh
1202
00:27:03,041 –> 00:27:04,864
[Ben Jones]: right as that number is much higher
i don’t know the
1203
00:27:04,893 –> 00:27:06,183
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1204
00:27:04,904 –> 00:27:05,324
[Ben Jones]: percentage
1205
00:27:05,636 –> 00:27:05,739
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah
1206
00:27:05,665 –> 00:27:06,426
[Ben Jones]: than it was at say
1207
00:27:06,453 –> 00:27:07,953
[paul_tyler]: oh
1208
00:27:06,767 –> 00:27:10,012
[Ben Jones]: two three four or five years ago
and so i think it’s only a matter
1209
00:27:10,072 –> 00:27:12,737
[Ben Jones]: of time and i think part of
it is that you know we talked about
1210
00:27:12,777 –> 00:27:13,939
[Ben Jones]: transparency being so important
1211
00:27:13,623 –> 00:27:13,643
[paul_tyler]: m
1212
00:27:14,159 –> 00:27:18,406
[Ben Jones]: for investments and these different investment vehicles
we’ve been talking
1213
00:27:18,131 –> 00:27:18,373
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1214
00:27:18,486 –> 00:27:18,807
[Ben Jones]: about
1215
00:27:19,301 –> 00:27:19,561
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah
1216
00:27:19,969 –> 00:27:24,216
[Ben Jones]: but i think also important layer is
education right it’s like we have
1217
00:27:24,223 –> 00:27:24,387
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1218
00:27:24,376 –> 00:27:25,478
[Ben Jones]: to be able to educate
1219
00:27:25,203 –> 00:27:26,223
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1220
00:27:26,051 –> 00:27:26,293
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1221
00:27:26,059 –> 00:27:27,982
[Ben Jones]: we think about educating the individual vest
or
1222
00:27:28,001 –> 00:27:28,243
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah
1223
00:27:28,022 –> 00:27:29,625
[Ben Jones]: but we also need to educate the
asset
1224
00:27:29,498 –> 00:27:29,640
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah
1225
00:27:29,665 –> 00:27:30,066

hate this service is available this is what’s
1228
00:27:33,431 –> 00:27:37,578
[Ben Jones]: provided this is why it’s important and
so we have we have
1229
00:27:37,653 –> 00:27:37,714
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah
1230
00:27:37,698 –> 00:27:40,463
[Ben Jones]: a big job at n f n

[ramsey_d_smith]: oh
1236
00:27:45,952 –> 00:27:48,797

[Ben Jones]: it is and you know i experience
that a little bit on my days on

[paul_tyler]: yea
1618
00:35:27,154 –> 00:35:35,308

broadly available through multiple channels so that the
1619
00:35:35,428 –> 00:35:37,291
[ramsey_d_smith]: people that create the underlying
1620
00:35:37,173 –> 00:35:37,476
[paul_tyler]: yeah
1621
00:35:37,371 –> 00:35:38,593
