Diversification Will Present Managers With Significant Opportunities

Being able to adapt has long been a hallmark of the cross-border funds industry. From volatile market conditions and shifting investor appetite to regulatory change and the impact of geopolitics – asset managers have learned to adjust their sails as needed.

But that change has, by and large, been incremental, rather than seismic. Now, the established norms in the global alternative and private investment sector are being challenged like never before – on multiple fronts - something that is explored in a white paper Jersey Finance recently published in partnership with IFI Global.

It sets out how a number of largely unrelated factors are coming together to create a period of intense change – change that is manifested through investor diversification, product diversification and structural diversification, that is set to transform the private investment sector over the coming years.
