The definitive guide on fund and asset managers worldwide
Fund Managers: The Complete Guide
is an all-encompassing overview of fund and asset managers around the
globe. The only comprehensive guide on the subject, this book covers
both the fund manager and the market as a whole while providing insights
from current and future fund managers and leaders in the technology
industry from the UK, EU and US. Focused examination of the fund
managers and their investors – the categories of manager, the asset
classes they participate in, how they are using technology and their
views on the market – complements a wider survey of the market that
includes upcoming changes to regulation, taxation and political shifts
in the Western world.
The asset management industry continues to
undergo significant changes that rise from the Global Financial Crisis
and its recovery, the recent technology boom and political fluctuations
that have altered the way business is conducted in financial markets
around the world. Questions concerning China and Asia’s rise, Trumpian
influence in America and post-Brexit UK-EU relations underscore the
contemporary relevance of Fund Managers: The Complete Guide to current and future discourse within the industry. This important volume:
- Explains worldwide roles, purposes and operations of asset managers including how local culture influences their strategies
- Examines different types of assets and asset-management strategies
- Investigates
the influence of macroeconomic and political factors such as governance
and regulation, international taxation, anti-globalisation and populism
- Illustrates the impact of technology and its disruptive products and players
- Describes the different types of investor investing in the managers’ funds and how they view the industry
- Future-gazes over the ten years and beyond for the industry
Fund Managers: The Complete Guide
is the authoritative resource for anyone who requires an overview of
the asset management industry and up-to-date insights on current and
future trends and practices. The book also complements the author’s
earlier work Funds: Private Equity, Hedge and All Core Structures.
