Now that industry conferences are back to full capacity, Pierre-Yves Rahari, Partner, AlgoMe Consulting joins us for our new podcast: Mirror, mirror on the wall…. What conference agendas say about the Investment Management industry.  In this fascinating conversation, he talks about what’s on the agendas for these events and what they tell us about the industry today.

We see AI being applied across many industries, which is why we think it deserves to be the centre stage topic for our latest podcast. In this episode we are in conversation with Luuk Jacobs, Partner, AlgoMe Consulting, who has been studying and working in this field for some time now and we ask him the question; what are the implications of AI for the Investment Management industry?

In our latest podcast we examine the news about this year’s banking crises, especially in the light of the SVB and Credit Suisse scenarios, and what implications of these might be for the Investment Management Industry. We also discuss where the epicentre of financial power might lie in our post Brexit world, and among the current geopolitical uncertainties.

It has been telling to look at the recent attempt by Euronext, one of Europe’s largest stock exchanges, to acquire Allfunds, the global distribution platform. Although the transaction did not succeed, it was an interesting indication of how much distribution operation matters in the investment management industry. This is giving us an opportunity to look a little bit further under the hood of distribution operations and examine how the sales efforts can be enhanced and powered by an efficient and disciplined support model.

We are delighted to share the new AlgoMe Consulting IQ in which we have a packed agenda of in depth articles and case studies. In this issue, we will be focusing on how to grow and thrive in a new environment, and how to prepare all around for this.
