Cerulli’s Outlook for Global Expansion
Evaluate Regional Addressability
United States
There is much nuance to the dilemma of where a foreign manager should start in terms of identifying “the where” in pioneering a new U.S. distribution strategy. Two channels of intrigue that firms should explore are institutional nonprofits and RIAs.
Europe
Evaluate which countries offer fertile ground for gathering retirement assets, which markets are best poised for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing, and where exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are seeing the most growth.
Asia Pacific
The “right” countries for global managers to expand into may not necessarily be the ones with the largest or most promising mutual fund industries, as much will depend on the managers’ strategies and regional market dynamics.
