Insufficient attention or just plain complacency around reviewing a firm’s technology stack can result in asset managers falling significantly behind their peers, especially during a precarious period marked by major market events on the horizon. While margin pressure and increased competition have been constant challenges in the industry for the past decade, firms must now also navigate unfavorable market conditions and a shifting operating landscape.
