The landscape for asset managers is evolving, and so are their strategic priorities – A recent survey conducted by Northern Trust in partnership with WBR Insights revealed that asset managers have shifted their strategic focus inward, looking at ways to improve their investor experience. This was a departure from the past, when controlling costs was a top concern. Managers are enhancing the investor experience by increasing quality and accuracy, deploying targeted distribution strategies, employing better data management, and outsourcing.  70 percent of Australian managers plan to control costs in the next two years through automation and technology improvements, such as use of AI and cloud adoption.   

AIMA invites manager members only to this roundtable discussion on the growth of the Asset management Industry in 2024 and beyond. We will examine how managers are prioritising their strategies in the next two years, and how those may have evolved to adapt to the changing market environment.  We will also discuss distribution, better data management, improved tools, cost controlling, front office analytics.
