Product development and innovation will be vital for asset managers seeking to retain and win business in the coming years as the period of strong asset growth and low interest rates comes to an end. With shifting marketing and client demand, this research examines the top initiatives for managers across regions. Here is our high-level breakdown:
U.S.: In the highly competitive U.S. market, product strategy and innovation are driven by the fact that many investment products are viewed as lacking differentiation. Cerulli believes that, to satisfy the unique needs of investors, asset managers need to deliver more solutions across a broader range of vehicle structures and provide scalable solutions that can be customized at the individual investor level.
Europe: The importance of ESG criteria to Swedish institutional investors means opportunities exist for asset managers that can demonstrate a clear, transparent, and repeatable sustainable investment process. Those that can support innovative and forward-looking approaches to environmental themes will be particularly in demand among smaller pension funds seeking efficient exposures.
Asia: The mutual fund industry in the Asia-Pacific region demonstrated resilience last year, with some growth despite the volatile market environment. Opportunities for managers exist in specialized areas such as responsible investment, wealth management, and alternatives.
Gain the clarity you need to enter and expand into new markets. Our latest report, Global Markets 2023: A Changing World, analyzes the markets, regions, and products that offer the greatest growth potential.
