A gradual but extremely important shift is underway in the approach of Asia’s wealth management community as private banks, and independent asset management firms strive to boost the prevalence of discretionary portfolio management (DPM) and advisory solutions and thereby decrease their traditional reliance on transactional revenues, which can be fickle and difficult to predict, and which can easily dry up in very difficult market conditions.
Specifically, changes in investor appetite for different asset classes, regulatory reform, persistent market volatility, the gradual evolution of the advisory model in the region, and incremental growth in demand for longer-term investment strategies, as well as a growing inclination for a greater allocation to private and alternative assets, are among the key drivers towards more managed accounts and discretionary portfolios playing a more prominent role for Asian private clients going forward.
This evolution offers an unprecedented opportunity to change the way the industry engages with their clients, but to be realistic it is only taking place very slowly in Asia, as Asian private clients have long preferred to control their investments and have a predilection not to pay for financial advice. However, this does not deter the wealth management community, who believe that Asia can ultimately emulate the successful DPM and advisory model in Switzerland and Europe.
The Hubbis Digital Dialogue of Thursday, October 1 will debate these matters, and many more as a panel of genuine experts assemble for what will be a fascinating ‘virtual’ discussion.
