Questo elaborato esamina la nascita dei robo-advisor, il loro funzionamento, la teoria su cui si basano e i loro principali vantaggi e limiti. Analizza inoltre Betterment, Wealthfront e Nutmeg per mostrare come i robo-advisor abbiano trasformato la gestione degli investimenti moderna. Nel complesso, sostengo che i robo-advisor abbiano reso gli investimenti più accessibili e meno costosi, ma che il loro successo futuro dipenderà dalla capacità di combinare l’automazione con il giudizio umano nei casi in cui sia necessario un consiglio più complesso.

Abstract
This paper explores the rise of robo-advisors, how they operate, the theory behind them, and their main strengths and limitations. It also looks at Betterment, Wealthfront, and Nutmeg to show how robo-advisory has reshaped modern investment management. Overall, I argue that robo-advisors have made investing more accessible and affordable, but their future success will depend on combining automation with human judgment where more complex advice is required.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
