Operational resilience is making the headlines in the Wealth and Asset Management industry, with a strong push from the regulators across the UK and Europe. 

Against that background, how are the operating models adapting in the industry, after having been tested to the limit during the Covid-19 crisis? 
What is the implication for outsourcing, which is a prevalent model in the industry? How will these operational models stand the test of time in an industry that is continuously undergoing change? 

Finally, is operational resilience the preserve of the CRO's and COO's only, or should it be seen as a cross-discipline responsibility?

As we continue our series of podcasts  looking at 2021 with ‘cautious optimism’, we follow-up on our previous episode about new asset classes and products by exploring further what is prompting the Wealth and Asset Management industry towards a binary model of giant vs. niche players. With our guests we discuss in depth what trends we are observing and what that means today. We also look at who the main players are on this world stage, the implications from an investor perspective, and more broadly from a stakeholder perspective.

In this new podcast we explore how the Wealth and Asset Management industry has actively promoted the integration of private markets in the form of new asset classes and fund structures in their product range, especially in the form of cryptoassets. With our guests we discuss in depth what has prompted this trend and how they foresee it developing in the next few years - especially against the backdrop of a post-COVID and post-Brexit economy. We will also have a dive into the implications for Wealth and Asset Managers, from a strategic, infrastructure and development viewpoint.

In our new podcast we look beyond the hype and take a deep dive into ESG with those in the know. The Wealth and Asset Management industry diligently integrated ESG into investment and product development processes over the past few years. Today, increasing taxonomies and regulations raises the question whether we are moving towards a standardisation of ESG? Is this practically possible given the diversity of philosophy and practice in the creation, launch and distribution of ESG solutions? Is this a desirable outcome for the industry? 

Listen to our enlightening podcast where we get to the heart of the matter and discuss key developments in the UK and US.

In the first of our new podcast series, we explore ESG and sustainability in great depth with our guests. Over the last few years, in addition to creating ESG oriented products, the Wealth and Asset Management (WAM) industry has embraced a number of stakeholder inclusion measures, which made their way into the regulation: Diversity, equality, and Gender Pay Gap reporting. Today, in a post-Covid and post-Brexit world, the City's geo-strategic position has changed and its regulatory framework is under debate. In this context, will the WAM industry be able to continue developing a purpose-driven and sustainable corporate model? Where do we stand today; and what else is planned, in practice, and from a regulatory perspective? Please listen to hear some great insights and discussion.

At the beginning of 2021, the Wealth and Asset Management industry, is like most of the planet, feeling optimistic about the prospect of moving into a post-pandemic world in the course of this year. At the same time, in a post-Brexit context, the mind of the industry is set towards further expansion, while redefining the regulatory framework in which it operates and integrating innovation further across the board (products, technology, leadership etc.). 
 However, this renewed optimism will not come without its challenges. These are the fundamental changes in the industry that we invite you to explore with our guests in our new series of podcasts: "Optimism with caution".

As industry looks to refocus and adapt to a post Covid world, the theme of this podcast is revisiting the governance model in the Wealth and Asset Management industry. 

Boards are already being challenged by prominent issues such as digital, Black Lives Matter, ESG, diversity and economic recession. Added to this is technological innovation, changing market dynamics and younger generations whose investment outcomes are likely to be different from the Baby Boomers and Generation X. 

We explore with our guests what governance model changes need to be made to address all these challenges in the new world under construction
