Jason Petersen, Managing Partner at Five Financial, shares how military discipline shapes his approach to advice, leadership, and client relationships. He explains why his firm has gone all-in on a market beta investment strategy, arguing that consistent returns, tax efficiency, and low turnover matter more than chasing outperformance. Beyond investing, he highlights where advisers should really focus their time and why most clients care far less about performance than you think. He also makes a strong case for AI adoption in advice, warning that firms who ignore it risk being left behind as efficiency and scalability become critical. His message; control what you can (structure, strategy, and behaviour) and let the market do the rest.
