In This Episode
In this episode, Rory Holland sits down with David Benskin, the founder and CEO of Wealth Access, to explore the grit required to change the way financial institutions use their data. David reflects on his 13-year journey as CEO, from his early days at Merrill Lynch to navigating the global financial crisis and launching a platform to solve the fragmented data problem plaguing financial institutions, wealth advisors, and clients alike.
They discuss the decision to rebrand from a data aggregator to a connected intelligence platform, the vital role of clean data as a foundation for AI, and why technology should empower—not replace—the human element of financial advice. Beyond the boardroom, David shares how coaching his kids in wakeboarding mirrors the responsibilities of a CEO.
