Abstract
The global financial world has been experiencing increasing complexities in the design and construct of financial instruments, wherein the average retail investors need to be well informed and aware of the risks about the evolution of financial products and financial system. The global financial crisis of 2008-2009 is evident to the fact that traditional methods of financial advisory involving the use of human intermediaries and financial advisors is not an infallible method to determine one's financial decision or risk management. Almost a decade since the crisis, the advancement of financial technology in the form of robo-advisors and the use of data and visual analytics have completely transformed the way the retail investors make their financial decisions and also in the sphere of risk management of these investors. The study qualitatively analyses the use of the use of analytics and robo-advisory in determining retail investors' financial decisions and risk management by doing a systematic and an exhaustive literature review on the latest and the past studies on the topic.
期刊介绍：
The Journal will serve and provide a forum for exchange of ideas among business executives and academicians concerned with global business and economic issues. With the rapid evolution of corporate business from international to global in recent years, general business has been one of the areas of greatest added complexity and concern for corporate managers. It is no longer sufficient for the corporate manager to limit his/her study simply to the domestic aspects of general business. Almost every single topic that can be studied in general business now has global dimensions that are equally important. As such, practitioners and academicians, each with a unique perspective on global business, must go beyond the presently limited sharing of information and ideas. The Journal will be an academic journal combining academic inquiry and informed business practices. It will publish empirical, analytical, review, and survey articles, as well as case studies related to all areas of global business and economics. A sentiment often expressed by practitioners is that academic research in general may not be addressing the most relevant questions in the real world. To bridge some gaps in our knowledge of the real world, the Journal is thereby willing to sponsor a field research (such as surveys, in-depth interviews, on-site studies, etc.). It is fair to say that the Journal will publish high-quality applied-research papers. Nevertheless, studies that test important theoretical works and shed additional light on the issue with some business implications will also be solicited.
