When it comes to solving the problems of asset management, there’s one disruptor that stands out and is in a class by himself. That name is Devon Drew.

With a career spanning over 17 years at prominent asset management institutions like Vanguard and J.P. Morgan Chase, Devon's stroke of genius is shaping the future of asset management in unprecedented ways. Devon is the founder and CEO of AssetLink (formerly DFD Partners), a data-driven distribution platform to help smaller, demographically underrepresented asset managers scale up their distribution strategies. Devon is named among Wealth Management.com's coveted list of "10 to watch in 2024."

In today's enlightening episode, recorded live from Schwab IMPACT, Devon discusses the inception of DFD - Diligence Fund Distributors - the company he founded in 2021. We also get an insider's view into DFD's platform, AssetLink, the first-of-its-kind AI-powered, bidirectional platform for investment discovery. AssetLink, approved on Schwab's platform, is transforming how asset managers and advisors connect, offering a dynamic, intelligent solution for investment matching.

Devon's platform has already attracted the attention of major players like JP Morgan, American Century Investments, Ritholtz Wealth and others. Today, AssetLink boasts participation from 67 asset managers and over 7,400 advisors, marking a new era in asset management collaboration.

In our compelling dialogue, Devon emphasizes the transformative power of technology, not only as a tool for efficiency but as a catalyst for equality and community-building within the financial advisory landscape.

For transformative leaders bold enough to tackle the status quo like Devon, today's conversation with Devon illustrates the transformative power of what it means to be forward-thinking In The Suite.
