The alternative investment landscape is evolving rapidly
The investment landscape is undergoing significant changes as demand for access to alternative funds continues to rise.
According to Bain & Company (www.bain.com), private markets are expected to grow at more than twice the rate of public assets, reaching up to $65 trillion by 2032.
Driven by the desire for portfolio diversification and the pursuit of strong returns, alternative investments are now also attracting a broader range of investors, including High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs).
Euroclear FundsPlace® leads this transformation, empowering fund administrators to optimise operations and scale seamlessly through advanced digitisation across the entire fund lifecycle.
Modernising to keep up with demand
As the influx of new investors seeking access to alternatives grows, the operational demand on fund administrators increases exponentially. Traditional, manual processes and legacy systems are proving inadequate in this fast-paced environment, leading to inefficiencies that can stifle growth.
While mutual funds benefit from a more straightforward structure, alternative investments require complex, multi-jurisdictional processes. To stay competitive, fund administrators must modernise through digital transformation to meet the evolving demands of investors and ensure operational efficiency.
Euroclear FundsPlace enables fund administrators to overcome these challenges by providing a fully digitised, end-to-end platform that accelerates investor onboarding, subscription processing and compliance. This ensures that administrators can manage a growing number of subscriptions without sacrificing accuracy or speed.
