average age of financial advisors
By Matthew Heimer. The average American worker is in somewhere between ages 35 and 44, but the financial-advice industry is, shall we say, considerably more gray. Among the 300,000 or so full-time financial advisers, the average age is about 50, and 21% are over 60, according to a report from consulting firm Accenture. That means that if youâre a boomer, thereâs a not-insignificant chance that your golfing-buddy-slash-investment-coach will retire before you do.
