Growth and value creation in asset management

How can investment managers win in the ‘new normal’ of the financial industry? Will it be back to business as usual, or should new approaches be developed after the major ‘re-set’ witnessed in financial markets and asset management in particular? Will the winners of tomorrow be the same as those of yesterday or today? What does it take to implement successful growth strategies going forward? How do investment managers create value in a durable, sustainable way that addresses the needs of clients, intermediaries, regulators, managers and shareholders? What are the future implications of operational challenges and IT architecture?

These questions are some of the key issues addressed in this new book, the third in a series on the global asset management industry. Published by SimCorp’s independent research arm SimCorp StrategyLab, ‘Growth and value creation in asset management’ is edited by Professor Paul Verdin (Solvay Business School) under the overall direction of Professor Ingo Walter (Stern School at NYU and INSEAD) and Lars Bjørn Falkenberg  (Assistant Director of SimCorp StrategyLab).  Experts from the investment management industry, professionals, academics and research centres will share their views and insights.
