Rick Wurster highlighted that the company is excited about entering the crypto space. He added that once they join the bandwagon, clients will decide the terms of adding digital assets to their portfolios.
“We’re excited about the crypto space but ultimately, it’s up to the client in terms of how they want to utilize crypto in their portfolios.”

The strategic move to incorporate crypto offerings aims to attract younger crypto investors under 40 years old. The company executive said the firm cares about young investors and would want to help them succeed.
Wurster told the reporter that the company is focused on driving company growth, supporting consumer development, and enhancing operational efficiency. He also emphasized that the firm was focused on delivering according to the expectations of the clients while simultaneously maintaining a stable track of growth and performance.
Rick Wurster said in a Bloomberg Radio interview on Thursday that he does not plan to purchase any crypto assets at the moment but will support the firm’s clients who wish to gain crypto exposure.
The president also mentioned that artificial intelligence is changing the wealth management industry and that Charles Schwab has already begun adopting the technology to streamline its operations.
Charles Schwab’s Wurster regrets not buying crypto earlier
Wurster emphasized that he regrets not buying crypto and feels “silly” for not taking action early enough. Wurster is not the only institutional official who publicly regretted not getting into crypto before the industry experienced an outburst. Perhaps the most notable figure who has heavily criticized Bitcoin but ended up regretting it is Peter Schiff.
Schiff has been a long-term critic of Bitcoin. On several occasions, he has publicly claimed that Bitcoin has no real-world utility and more often compared the asset to gold as a commodity. His take is that gold is superior to Bitcoin.
Although his stance on Bitcoin has largely been critical, he recently said in an interview that he wished he had bought some Bitcoin when he first heard about it in 2010.
The crypto industry has faced a massive institutional influx in recent months as asset management firms begin expanding their services to crypto investors. Recently, ETF issuers have narrowed their focus on altcoins such as XRP and Solana in a bid to stretch their offerings to retail and non-crypto-oriented institutions looking for crypto exposure.
