Today, asset managers are in a perfect storm – having to balance constant regulatory change, technological disruption, and evolving client expectations in an increasingly margin compressed environment.
In fact, 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.
What’s their secret? Hint: It’s not in spreadsheets. In this live virtual event, our panel of industry experts will reveal:
- 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 minimise risk for cross-border fund distribution;
and more!
