MiFID II represents the most ambitious regulatory project to affect the modality of interaction among investors, distributors, advisors and manufacturers. The book's analysis of MiFID II will serve as a canvas to showcase how best practices, grounded in goal-based investing and probabilistic scenarios, will create a new framework. This framework will allow the reader to evade the pitfalls of progressively commoditised investment solutions, and avoid disruption to their business by harnessing the 'human element' to achieve sustained innovation.

"Ravezzi and Sironi hit the bullseye in identifying clients' goals as the central focus in the next generation of financial advice. They recognise that pairing clients' goals with the distribution of financial products via comprehensive advice leads to a balanced and transparent approach that brings the consumer and institution together in the right way. As vanguards of the FinTech industry, they have identified that banks must provide the personalisation their customers want and need with sustaining innovation necessary to avoid disruption." - Tom White, Founder & CEO - iQuantifi, Inc.
