ESAs report finds automation in financial advice slowly growing but scale of market remains limited
September 5, 2018--The three European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs)-EBA, EIOPA and ESMA-today published the results of their monitoring exercise on automation in financial advice.

As the identified risks have not materialised and considering the limited growth of the phenomenon, the ESAs believe that no immediate action is necessary.
