Sector Shifts Redefining the Asset-management Landscape

Continued structural growth and diversification of front-office functions

Asset managers are seeing a continued shift in assets from actively managed assets to passives and alternatives. End markets are also shifting, with retail demand and growth surpassing institutional growth, leading to more demand for personalised investment products.

Need to keep pace with technological advancements

Asset managers are investing in AI/ML tools to drive productivity and innovation across the investment value chain.

Ongoing regulatory challenges

Increased regulatory burden on asset managers to drive transparency of investment products and emerging reporting requirements (e.g., SFDR, leading to investors having to report environmental, social and governance criteria at asset level).

Shifts in value pool, leading to margin pressures

Asset managers are seeking to maximise cost efficiency and reform operating models to drive operational alpha.

Sector consolidation gaining pace

Consolidation in the asset management sector is gaining pace as players seek to expand their capabilities, gain access to new customer segments and drive cost synergies.
