According to McKinsey, the asset management industry has been undergoing a “reset” in 2022, as complexities emerge, asset classes proliferate, and data burgeons.
With the reset playing out, deriving simplicity and decision-ready information from the sea of data is key to managing complexity. With a taut regulatory framework prevailing and increasing competition from the growing number of funds, asset managers cannot rest on their laurels or maintain a static approach to markets. In other words, the “traditional paradigms of investment have been upended.”
Technology can play an outsized role in helping asset managers perform the “reset” they need to in order to embrace complexity and generate returns in 2023 and beyond. “AssetTech,” technologies built specifically for this industry, has emerged as a major growth sector as asset management firms look to perform for their clients.
