Asset Management
The Asset Management industry is set for a challenging period ahead as industry and market forces affect the retention and gathering of assets.
The increasing cost of regulation, the “barbell effect” and the fall-out from emerging markets have created a testing landscape for the asset management community.
The recent winners have been firms who have offered ETF/Passive strategies and absolute return and multi-asset products, whilst the search for alpha has driven growth amongst specialist alternatives managers.
However, any increase in returns is being countered by escalating costs as companies invest in new technologies and communicate with increasingly engaged customers.
Odgers Berndtson supports organisations in recruiting the talent to tackle these industry issues.
Luxembourg
As the largest financial centre for investments funds in Europe, Luxembourg has become the platform of choice for global, cross-border, fund promoters.
Asset managers admire this financial centre mainly for its competence in the design, hosting, administration and cross-border distribution of investment funds. They also benefit from a regulatory framework that combines rigorous investor protection with an unequalled degree of flexibility in fund design.
At Odgers Berndtson Luxembourg, we work with asset management firms to ensure they have executive talents to handle the coming challenges.
