Making the business case for system consolidation
Most buy-side firms have grown over the years by way of mergers and acquisitions, which have had a significant bearing on their technology stacks. This has left many firms hamstrung and reliant on outdated legacy platforms and technologies.
The obvious solution for them is to wean themselves off those technologies and implement and single, front-to-back-office platform featuring the flexibility and scalability to support their growth and future needs. But those projects can be complex, costly and time-consuming, even for the smallest asset managers.
Joined by a team of industry experts, we will focus on the business and operational benefits of implementing a single investment management platform. We will then investigate how buy-side firms can make the business case for embarking on such an initiative.
Discussion points:
- The business and operational challenges facing buy-side firms that have become reliant on outdated technology
- How buy-side firms can make the business case for developing and deploying a single investment management platform to support their growth and future needs
- The key business, operational and technology issues buy-side firms need consider when embarking on a system consolidation project
- The benefits buy-side firms stand to gain by replacing outdated technology and the specific business processes that will be positively impacted by such a move
- Results of the system consolidation study carried out by WatersTechnology and SimCorp
