Many asset managers are revisiting the option to have third-party experts manage some or all of their investment operations through outsourced or co-sourced managed services; the market is expected to grow by 7% annually through 2024.
The renewed interest can be attributed in part to the abrupt switch to new operating models and financial uncertainties brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Other factors contributing to the interest in managed services include firms looking to address their rising labor costs, lacking digital capabilities, growing data traffic and aging system infrastructure. Learn more about the reasons and benefits behind outsourced managed services, particularly for mid-to-back office investment operations, from this "Outsourcing mid-to-back office investment operations helps firms face the future" infographic.
