A high-level panel of industry experts are set to discuss one of the funds industry’s most challenging, growing, complex and dynamic fields: cost-effective compliance.
The high-level dialogue will take the form of a live webinar to be streamed on Funds Europe’s website and with an emphasis on how to harness tech to navigate regulatory change.
Today, asset managers are caught in a perfect storm – having to balance constant regulatory change, technological disruption, and evolving client expectations in an increasingly margin-compressed environment.
The latest research from FE fundinfo revealed that 41% of asset managers see keeping up with regulatory changes as the top threat, reflecting the increasing complexity and volume of regulations that firms must navigate.
Close behind, 39% pointed to cost pressures, emphasising the need for operational efficiency in a competitive market.
As regulatory compliance demands and cost pressures soar, the gap between top and bottom quartile asset managers is widening.
The panel will include Brian Blanchard, conducting officer at Alliance Bernstein, Joerg Grossmann, CPO at FE fundinfo and Stéphane Janin, head of global regulatory development at AXA Investment Managers.
The webinar promises to equip asset managers with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate regulatory changes efficiently and cost-effectively, ensuring they remain competitive in an ever-evolving market.
Among the topics to be discussed will be:
- Long-term strategies for cost reduction while meeting regulatory demands
- Tech-led solutions for streamlining regulatory compliance
- The role of data standards and templates
- How to break free from Excel and minimize risk for cross-border fund distribution
