Our Head of Business Development, Adam Reeve, will be attending the Financial Times Future of Asset Management Summit this week. The asset management space is evolving rapidly as IPOs in many markets begin to stagnate and technology changes the rules of the game. We’re interested in what the future of asset management looks like, and how fund managers can successfully adapt to these shifting circumstances.   In particular, private markets are becoming a high-growth area as technology bolsters the levels of efficiency and liquidity they’re able to offer investors. As more private and institutional investors flock to private markets to take advantage of higher returns, funding is also increased. This puts private markets in a position to rival public markets in securing investors’ attention. The event takes place today and tomorrow, let us know in the comments if you’re attending!
