3 Modules·13 Lessons

Marketing in Asset & Wealth Management operates under distinct constraints: long sales cycles, high-value clients, fiduciary duty and heavy regulatory scrutiny of performance claims. This block equips you to apply core marketing discipline to the specific realities of attracting and retaining investors across retail, HNW and institutional segments. You will learn how firms position funds and advisory services, build trust-driven acquisition and nurture flows, and measure what matters using sector-relevant metrics rather than generic vanity numbers. You will also master the advertising rules that govern performance presentation, risk disclosure and fair treatment. The goal is practical fluency in marketing a regulated, trust-based financial product where credibility and compliance are competitive advantages.

  • Compute and interpret AWM-specific CAC, LTV and retention across retail, HNW and institutional segments
  • Design a compliant acquisition and nurture funnel adapted to long, trust-driven investment sales cycles
