Abstract: The asset management industry as previously known has changed forever. For the last two years, the industry has faced a time of unprecedented demands that will ultimately produce new winners and losers. While it can already be seen that a number of asset managers have taken the leap towards innovation, is what can be seen on the surface really preparing them for the future? Do digital investor portals, environmental, social and governance (ESG) investments and a growing interest in crypto-currencies mean they are digital to the core? And if not, why not? This paper looks at the key strategies asset managers need to adopt to make sure their investment operations can support the needs of investors, now and in the future. It covers adopting a long-term IT strategy versus worrying about short-term profit and embracing new technologies like cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance operational efficiency and transparency across the organisation.
