CEG Insights was born of a strategic fusion of two industry powerhouses: Spectrem Group, a leader in affluent investor research, and the research team of CEG Worldwide, a renowned advisor coaching firm. This merger, which took place in 2023, combined over 20 years of affluent investor research with extensive coaching experience, creating a unique platform that accelerates advisor success and helps senior executives drive organic growth.
Our inaugural offering, the Wealth Management Mastery Series, was unveiled shortly after our formation. This groundbreaking program empowered senior financial services executives to drive organic growth and attract affluent clients through their financial advisors. The series presents a prime opportunity for financial institutions to capitalize on the growing dissatisfaction among wealthy clients with their current advisors.
Today, CEG Insights continues to empower senior executives to engage with financial advisors, sharing insights and actionable steps for sustainable organic growth. We invite you to leverage our comprehensive solutions to elevate your financial advisors’ success and propel your business forward. Join us on this journey toward excellence in wealth management.
