Automated financial advice delivered by computer algorithm - often dubbed robo-advice - is a fast-growing business. But should you entrust your life savings to a computer?
For many of us, talking about money is embarrassing - revealing our income and spending habits can feel like disrobing in public.
So it's no wonder seeking investment advice from an impersonal, unbiased computer program is proving so popular.
Consultancy firm Accenture found that 68% of global consumers would be happy to use robo-advice to plan for retirement, with many feeling it would be faster, cheaper, and more impartial than human advice.
"Many of our clients say they feel awkward in face-to-face meetings, preferring an online experience where they don't feel judged," says Lynn Smith, a director of robo-advice firm Wealth Wizards.
So how does robo-advice work and is it really any better than traditional financial advice?
Robo-adviser firms use algorithms to analyse your financial situation and goals and then work out an investment plan to suit you.
Basically, you answer lots of questions online about your income, expenses, family situation, attitude to risk, and so on, and then the algorithm allocates your savings to a mix of investments, from index funds that aim to mimic a particular stock market index or sector, to fixed-income bonds.
As some investments are riskier than others, younger investors will generally have their portfolios weighted towards higher-risk, higher-growth investments, whereas older investors approaching retirement will see the balance of their portfolios weighted towards lower-risk, fixed income investments, such as government bonds or gilts.
Joe Ziemer, vice president of communications at Betterment, a US robo-adviser with more than $9bn under management, says: "The Betterment service takes your information and uses a series of algorithms to create an asset allocation plan, which might be, for example, 90% equities and 10% bonds for a retirement saver."
The crucial point is that these algorithms work everything out for you at much lower cost than many traditional wealth advisory firms.
Wealth Wizards, for example, typically charges £65 for investments up to £30,000, and 0.30%, or £300, on a £100,000 investment pot. Betterment charges 0.25% a year.
That's peanuts compared to human advisers' fees, which come in at about £580 for advice on a £200-a-month pension contribution, or £1,000-£2,000 for guidance on what to do with your £100,000 pot when your retire, according to UK adviser network Unbiased.
Many of these robo-advisers will offer human advice as well - for any extra fee - if your finances are more complicated or you need tax planning services as well.
"When a client needs advice spanning a number of different regulatory regimes, human advice will be required," says John Perks, managing director of life and pensions at UK insurer LV, which launched its Retirement Wizard robo-advice service two years ago.
So could these cheaper investment services encourage more of us to save more?
The powers that be certainly hope so.
World Economic Forum figures show the collective retirement savings gap of the world's largest economies will hit $400tn (£307tn) by 2050, meaning a lot of people could be spending their retirements in poverty.
Governments are concerned that this might then place an unsustainable burden on welfare systems.
Robo-advice is certainly growing in popularity.
Market research aggregator Statista says the US market will grow 29% per year between now and 2021, and forecasts that the number of Chinese investors using robo-advice services will jump from two million to 79.4 million in the same period.
While Consultancy AT Kearney forecasts that robo-advisers will be managing $2.2tn within five years, representing a 68% annual growth rate.

The Higher Education Students’ Loans Board (HESLB) on Wednesday, October 18, 2017, released the first batch of 10,196 successful applicants for the academic year 2017/18.
The list is among 30,000 first year students who are expected to receive loans from the HESLB for higher education
According to a statement released by HESLB Director General Abdul-razaq Badru, about Sh34.6 billion has been allocated to successful candidates in the first batch.
“In this academic year, a total of Sh108.8 billion will be released for 30,000 first year students,” he said in a statement.
Mr Badru added that the list of successful applicants in the first batch is available at HESLB website “Other lists will be released according to the allocation trend,” he said, adding that an allocation exercise for all successful fresh candidates will be accomplished by the end of October.
The HESLB boss explained further that the first batch was drawn from 32,495 students who have been admitted to one university.
For those who have been admitted to more than one institution and qualify for the loan, the allocation will wait until they have made a single choice.
He went on to explain that Sh318.6 billion had been allocated to 93, 295 continuing students.Meanwhile, the HESLB has started disbursing meals, accommodation and tuition fee for continuing students who have passed their exams.
According to Mr Badru, the exercise started on Wednesday, October 17, purposely to end inconveniences which normally emerge at the beginning of the academic year
Dar es Salaam. East Singida MP, Tundu Lissu, Alute Mughwai, described how he had given his minority an ICU hospital and what he said immediately after he left for the first time. Speaking to the President today on Wednesday, Alute said Lissu immediately not only he was happy but even his brothers who were present enjoyed the event.
"The nurses planned to release him on Saturday (October 14) and Lissu knew we were going, he told them not to wait for his brothers to arrive, I was with other brothers," Alute said.
"At 10 pm we delivered it and I gave it ICU, he was happy and we were happy with that step," he added.
When the citizen wanted to know, when Lissu came out, he said, "he was happy for the first time being sunny, he said it's the same as being a prisoner does not see the sun, the clouds do not beat the ordinary wind."
The Lissu family is celebrated
Alsu said Lissu stayed out about half an hour and then returned to the wod where she was kidnapping though it was not ICU but has protection and intimidation and not everyone can see it.
"As Mbowe said (Chairman of Chadema-Freeman Mbowe) yesterday, he goes on well and he is smart."
Regarding the process of sending her out of Nairobi where the family will be more involved, Alute has said: "I was Nairobi, so I'm going to report what will follow after communicating with the brothers."
He said the brothers in different parts of Kenya, Australia, the United States, Canada, who will have to negotiate first and will report on what is going on.
President Jacob Zuma has reshuffled his cabinet, adjusting six portfolios including the Ministry of Energy, in a move analysts say is linked to a contentious nuclear energy deal with Russia.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, the presidency said it had moved David Mahlobo, former minister of state security and a longtime Zuma ally, to the energy portfolio.
Zuma also fired Blade Nzimande, the minister of higher education and training, in a move understood as punitive after Nzimande criticed the president.
Nzimande is also the General Secretary of South African Communist Party (SACP), a key partner in the tripartite alliance with the ANC-led government. His removal from government has prompted speculation that the SACP may leave the alliance.
Political analyst Steve Friedman, director of the Centre for the Study of Democracy at the University of Johannesburg, told Al Jazeera that Mahlobo's appointment was the most important development.
"He is considered a hyper-Zuma loyalist. It seems he has been moved into this position to push through the nuclear deal," Friedman said.
Zuma appeared to hedging bets, Friedman explained, before the party conference in December 2017 when the ANC will elect a new leader.
"Should Zuma lose that election, he has put in place a loyalist in the ministry so he can nail down the nuclear deal [in the future]," Friedman said.
The South African government has been trying to push through a contentious nuclear energy deal to the tune of $74bn with Russia, which is thought to have been struck when Zuma met Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2014.
In April, the Western Cape High Court ruled that the potential deal with Russia was unlawful and unconstitutional and that if government wanted to proceed, it would have restart the process.
Liz McDaid, an environmentalist with Southern African Faith Communities Environment Institute - one of the organisations that took the state to court - described Mahlobo's appointment as "systematic state capture".
"This appointment was not dreamt up last night. It is an obvious attempt to make this [nuclear] deal happen in the future," McDaid said.
In September, HuffPost South Africa reported that Mahlobo had become country's de facto prime minister and the president's "right hand man". Mahlobo himself has been criticised for his dealings.
In late 2016, an Al Jazeera investigation found that Mahlobo had a close relationship with alleged rhino-poaching kingpin Guan Jiang Guang.
Tuesday's developments mark second time in 2017 that Zuma has reshuffled his cabinet. In March, Zuma fired five ministers, including then finance minister Pravin Gordhan and his deputy, Mcebisi Jonas.
Zuma has been under growing pressure to step down following the publication of a report by the public protector that concluded that Zuma's government had been potentially "captured" by private capital, in particular by the wealthy and influential Gupta family, who hold a range of business interests in South Africa.
In August, Zuma narrowly survived a no-confidence vote held by secret ballot in parliament. Members of the 400-seat parliament voted 198 to 177, with nine abstentions.

The crucial point is that these algorithms work everything out for you at much lower cost than many traditional wealth advisory firms.
Wealth Wizards, for example, typically charges £65 for investments up to £30,000, and 0.30%, or £300, on a £100,000 investment pot. Betterment charges 0.25% a year.
That's peanuts compared to human advisers' fees, which come in at about £580 for advice on a £200-a-month pension contribution, or £1,000-£2,000 for guidance on what to do with your £100,000 pot when your retire, according to UK adviser network Unbiased.
Many of these robo-advisers will offer human advice as well - for any extra fee - if your finances are more complicated or you need tax planning services as well.
"When a client needs advice spanning a number of different regulatory regimes, human advice will be required," says John Perks, managing director of life and pensions at UK insurer LV, which launched its Retirement Wizard robo-advice service two years ago.
So could these cheaper investment services encourage more of us to save more?
The powers that be certainly hope so.
World Economic Forum figures show the collective retirement savings gap of the world's largest economies will hit $400tn (£307tn) by 2050, meaning a lot of people could be spending their retirements in poverty.
Governments are concerned that this might then place an unsustainable burden on welfare systems.
Robo-advice is certainly growing in popularity.
Market research aggregator Statista says the US market will grow 29% per year between now and 2021, and forecasts that the number of Chinese investors using robo-advice services will jump from two million to 79.4 million in the same period.
While Consultancy AT Kearney forecasts that robo-advisers will be managing $2.2tn within five years, representing a 68% annual growth rate.

Automated financial advice delivered by computer algorithm - often dubbed robo-advice - is a fast-growing business. But should you entrust your life savings to a computer?
For many of us, talking about money is embarrassing - revealing our income and spending habits can feel like disrobing in public.
So it's no wonder seeking investment advice from an impersonal, unbiased computer program is proving so popular.
Consultancy firm Accenture found that 68% of global consumers would be happy to use robo-advice to plan for retirement, with many feeling it would be faster, cheaper, and more impartial than human advice.
"Many of our clients say they feel awkward in face-to-face meetings, preferring an online experience where they don't feel judged," says Lynn Smith, a director of robo-advice firm Wealth Wizards.
So how does robo-advice work and is it really any better than traditional financial advice?
Robo-adviser firms use algorithms to analyse your financial situation and goals and then work out an investment plan to suit you.
Basically, you answer lots of questions online about your income, expenses, family situation, attitude to risk, and so on, and then the algorithm allocates your savings to a mix of investments, from index funds that aim to mimic a particular stock market index or sector, to fixed-income bonds.
As some investments are riskier than others, younger investors will generally have their portfolios weighted towards higher-risk, higher-growth investments, whereas older investors approaching retirement will see the balance of their portfolios weighted towards lower-risk, fixed income investments, such as government bonds or gilts.

NOW THE TIME HAS COME FOR HON PAUL MAKONDA THE REGIONAL COMMISSIONER OF DAR ES SALAAM AFTER PRESIDENT MAGUFULI ASKED HIM TO ENSURE HE IS GOING TO FULFILL HIS PROMISE OTHERWISE HE WILL FIRED
Maternal mortality is unacceptably high. About 830 women die from pregnancy- or childbirth-related complications around the world every day. It was estimated that in 2015, roughly 303 000 women died during and following pregnancy and childbirth. Almost all of these deaths occurred in low-resource settings, and most could have been prevented.1
In sub-Saharan Africa, a number of countries halved their levels of maternal mortality since 1990. In other regions, including Asia and North Africa, even greater headway was made. Between 1990 and 2015, the global maternal mortality ratio (the number of maternal deaths per 100 000 live births) declined by only 2.3% per year between 1990 and 2015. However, increased rates of accelerated decline in maternal mortality were observed from 2000 onwards. In some countries, annual declines in maternal mortality between 2000–2010 were above 5.5%.
The Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Strategy for Women's, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health
Seeing that it is possible to accelerate the decline, countries have now united behind a new target to reduce maternal mortality even further. One target under Sustainable Development Goal 3 is to reduce the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100 000 births, with no country having a maternal mortality rate of more than twice the global average.
Where do maternal deaths occur?
The high number of maternal deaths in some areas of the world reflects inequities in access to health services, and highlights the gap between rich and poor. Almost all maternal deaths (99%) occur in developing countries. More than half of these deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa and almost one third occur in South Asia. More than half of maternal deaths occur in fragile and humanitarian settings.
The maternal mortality ratio in developing countries in 2015 is 239 per 100 000 live births versus 12 per 100 000 live births in developed countries. There are large disparities between countries, but also within countries, and between women with high and low income and those women living in rural versus urban areas.
The risk of maternal mortality is highest for adolescent girls under 15 years old and complications in pregnancy and childbirth is a leading cause of death among adolescent girls in developing countries.2, 3
Women in developing countries have, on average, many more pregnancies than women in developed countries, and their lifetime risk of death due to pregnancy is higher. A woman’s lifetime risk of maternal death – the probability that a 15 year old woman will eventually die from a maternal cause – is 1 in 4900 in developed countries, versus 1 in 180 in developing countries. In countries designated as fragile states, the risk is 1 in 54; showing the consequences from breakdowns in health systems.
Why do women die?
Women die as a result of complications during and following pregnancy and childbirth. Most of these complications develop during pregnancy and most are preventable or treatable. Other complications may exist before pregnancy but are worsened during pregnancy, especially if not managed as part of the woman’s care. The major complications that account for nearly 75% of all maternal deaths are:4
severe bleeding (mostly bleeding after childbirth)
infections (usually after childbirth)
high blood pressure during pregnancy (pre-eclampsia and eclampsia)
complications from delivery
unsafe abortion.
The remainder are caused by or associated with diseases such as malaria, and AIDS during pregnancy.
How can women’s lives be saved?
Most maternal deaths are preventable, as the health-care solutions to prevent or manage complications are well known. All women need access to antenatal care in pregnancy, skilled care during childbirth, and care and support in the weeks after childbirth. Maternal health and newborn health are closely linked. It was estimated that approximately 2.7 million newborn babies died in 20155, and an additional 2.6 million are stillborn6. It is particularly important that all births are attended by skilled health professionals, as timely management and treatment can make the difference between life and death for both the mother and the baby.
Severe bleeding after birth can kill a healthy woman within hours if she is unattended. Injecting oxytocin immediately after childbirth effectively reduces the risk of bleeding.
Infection after childbirth can be eliminated if good hygiene is practiced and if early signs of infection are recognized and treated in a timely manner.
Pre-eclampsia should be detected and appropriately managed before the onset of convulsions (eclampsia) and other life-threatening complications. Administering drugs such as magnesium sulfate for pre-eclampsia can lower a woman’s risk of developing eclampsia.
To avoid maternal deaths, it is also vital to prevent unwanted and too-early pregnancies. All women, including adolescents, need access to contraception, safe abortion services to the full extent of the law, and quality post-abortion care.
Why do women not get the care they need?
Poor women in remote areas are the least likely to receive adequate health care. This is especially true for regions with low numbers of skilled health workers, such as sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Globally in 2015, births in the richest 20 per cent of households were more than twice as likely to be attended by skilled health personnel as those in the poorest 20 per cent of households (89 per cent versus 43 per cent). This means that millions of births are not assisted by a midwife, a doctor or a trained nurse.
In high-income countries, virtually all women have at least four antenatal care visits, are attended by a skilled health worker during childbirth and receive postpartum care. In 2015, only 40% of all pregnant women in low-income countries had the recommended antenatal care visits.
