Forecasting Finance: Futurist Jack Uldrich to Address Wealth Managers in Florida

For the next month, futurist Jack Uldrich is honing in on significant trends that will transform the global economy over the coming years--and thus the investment arena.

What are these big trends? According to Uldrich, they include artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, renewable energy, the sharing economy, life extension trends and global broadband/wireless coverage. He will also speak on virtual reality, nanotechnology, and genomics.

"All of the aforementioned technological advances are in their early stages and will continue to grow more influential by the end of the decade," says Uldrich.

"These trends suggest a sweeping change for the banking and financial services industry in the coming years. As Bill Gates once famously said, “Banking will remain necessary in the future, banks may not.”

Uldrich speaks on a regular basis around the world. His clients include Banamex, Global Atlantic, Invesco, Wells Fargo, University of Wisconsin Graduate School of Banking, Thrivent, Signal Hills, Stockbridge and Questar Capital, among others.

He will deliver two keynotes on these trends to a private investment firm back to back on February 28 and March 1 in Florida. He will also address wealth managers in Nassau, Bahamas on March 10 and another private investment firm in New York City on March 21

When asked for a quick tip on how to approach all these changes Uldrich responded, "If you want to stay on the right side of the future, the first thing to do is to acknowledge that the future will be different–perhaps radically different– than the present."
