Asset and wealth managers are exploring new technology. Now.

As we’re settling into a new normal way of working, investment management firms are looking forward in order to cultivate a stronger performing team.  Increased competition and volatility mean what has succeeded in the past will no longer suffice in the future; as data and technology have leveled the playing field in managing assets, clients are demanding higher returns, more transparency and customization…at lower fees.  For firms who want to retain a competitive edge, transformation is a necessity.

 

Watch our webinar to hear what a modern investment management firm will look like and how to succeed in this new reality.

 

Discussion topics include:

  • Client expectations are driving the need to provide increased transparency, communication, and customized investing guidelines (e.g., ESG)
  • New technologies are bringing innovation to firms and how designing a digital ecosystem for the future is a necessity to drive efficiencies and workflow improvements
  • Team dynamics are shifting as technology transformation and hybrid teams mean firms are prioritizing a new set of skills for team members
