Welcome to this edition of Asset & Wealth Management Insights, which looks into the likely impacts of FinTech on this sector.
Today FinTech, and blockchain technology particularly, appear poised to transform financial services again. After several years of experimentation, these technologies are beginning to be put to practical use. Over the next few years, it is likely that they will lead to substantial changes in asset and wealth managers’ businesses – across front, middle and back offices.
Yet asset and wealth managers have done relatively little to aggressively develop these technologies.
In this issue, Asset & Wealth Management Insights explores the likely impact of blockchain and FinTech more broadly. It touches on the likely impact of robo advice in Italy and digitisation in Hong Kong. What’s more, it explores the value creation opportunity that digitisation offers private equity.
Clearly, FinTech offers myriad opportunities for asset and wealth managers to do things faster and better.
The time to start exploring them is now.
