Janus Henderson Investors has formed an exclusive partnership
with Wayne State University (WSU) to help financial advisers
protect older adult investors from financial exploitation.
This is the first time WSU has collaborated with an asset
manager on an initiative specifically dedicated to combatting
financial exploitation, a growing problem for older adults who are
becoming more vulnerable in the internet age. FBI data reveals that
in 2021, there were US$5.6 billion in losses from internet fraud
alone. Janus Henderson and Wayne State hope to help protect more
investors by extending education on the topic and providing useful
tools to financial advisors.
The partnership leverages the extensive resources of WSU’s
Institute of Gerontology and Janus Henderson’s strong relationships
in the financial sector. The institute, led by Dr. Peter
Lichtenberg, Ph.D., is the nation’s largest interdisciplinary
organization dedicated to the field of aging. Dr. Lichtenberg is a
national expert in financial capacity assessment and financial
exploitation of older adults.
The program will feature educational presentations for financial
advisors and their clients by Janus Henderson’s Specialist
Consultants, and other tools and resources that advisors can use to
educate their clients and assess their vulnerability.
Matt Sommer, Ph.D., Head of Specialist Consulting Group for
Janus Henderson Investors, said: “Cognitive decline presents a
unique risk to aging investors that has yet to be meaningfully
addressed by the financial services industry. We’re proud to
partner with Wayne State University and Dr. Lichtenberg to create
more security for a sometimes-vulnerable group of clients.
Financial exploitation has grown in recent years and hopefully this
new endeavour can curb some of the massive losses incurred by
victims who often have little means of replacing their stolen
assets.”
Dr. Peter Lichtenberg, Ph.D, Director - Institute of
Gerontology and Distinguished Professor of Psychology for Wayne
State University, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Janus
Henderson and Dr. Matt Sommer. Financial advisors have a crucial
role to play in helping to prevent their older clients from
becoming victims of financial exploitation.”
