Powerful demand and supply side factors in the asset management industry have led to a significant increase in the extent of outsourcing in asset management. The catalyst for outsourcing has come from a host of strategic, financial, operational and technological changes. Competition for assets and greater attention to investment performance is driving asset managers to re-focus on their core competencies of product development and investment perfomance.
At PricewaterhouseCoopers we have developed and successfully used our outsourcing methodology to work with clients in all sectors, including supporting significant outsourcing transactions in the asset management business. Our experience has been that those organisations that get the full benefits of outsourcing and minimise the risks do so by following a clear six stage lifecycle.
More than a deal: Addressing the operational challenges of outsourcing for asset managers walks the client through those six stages, addressing each stage by PwC views as well as by client views through the experience of Crispin Henderson from Threadneedle and Tony Tomlinson of F&C. This is a UK specific document but may be of interest/have applicability in other countries around the world.
