20 Novembre 2024 - 3:00PM
Business Wire
Today, Schwab Advisor Services™ in partnership with Charles
Schwab Foundation announced the expansion of its Registered
Investment Advisor Talent Advantage (RIATA) Student Scholarship
program. In celebration of its fifth anniversary in 2025, the
scholarship program will now award $15,000 to 15 students toward
their academic enrollment, increasing the number of students to 15
and amount received by $5,000.
The growth and expansion of the RIATA Student Scholarship comes
at the same time we expect to see the Schwab University Grant
Program reach $25M in funding for 2025. To date, grants have been
awarded to 35 colleges and universities across 28 states.
Schwab is committed to empowering the next generation of talent
through various programs which includes scholarships, internships,
mentorship and networking opportunities, and university grants that
support curriculum and program development, state-of-the-art
facilities, and technology that will open doors to careers in
financial planning and support the development more high-quality
talent for RIAs to hire.
“We are focused not only on investing in individual students,
but also in the educational systems and communities that nurture
them and the industry that will one day benefit from their
contributions," said Jon Beatty, Head of Schwab Advisor Services.
“Our continued commitment reflects our firm belief that the future
of financial services lies in the hands of the next generation of
talent. We are excited to see how these emerging leaders will shape
the future of finance and drive the industry forward for years to
come.”
According to Schwab Advisor Services’ latest RIA Benchmarking
Study, the industry will need to hire an estimated 70,000 new
professionals over the next five years to keep pace with growth and
best serve clients. To support this growing need, firms have become
more focused on new avenues to source talent – of which, 36% said
they are recruiting from colleges and universities. Another proof
point as to why initiatives like these are so important.
“Investing in the next generation of talent is not only a
priority for our business – it is essential to the future of the
RIA industry,” said Lisa Salvi, Head of Business, Consulting and
Education for Schwab Advisor Services. “We believe that creating
accessible pathways towards a career in the financial planning
profession will help meet the critical demand for talent and fuel
the industry to serve the growing base of investors seeking to
realize their financial goals.”
The team, plus 80+ students and faculty members, will kick-off
the celebration of these latest advancements on-site at its
flagship conference, IMPACT® 2024 Conference in San Francisco, CA.
