Data Awarded to Researchers for “Identifying & Maintaining Great Financial Advisors”

In May 2016, AIAB launched an exciting Research Opportunity with Lincoln Financial Group. While researchers could submit to work on any facet of this data, the project is focused on predicting and exploring the lifetime value of financial advisors and agents. This rich dataset contains individual records for financial advisors and agents selling their products, including 8 years of sales transactions.
