The Asset Management industry has seen significant changes over the past ten years. Initially, the focus was on outsourcing back-office functions like Fund Accounting and Administration linked to Custody. Recently the industry has shifted to outsourcing Middle Office functions, such as Trade Matching, Corporate Actions, and Performance Measurement, aiming to leverage the economies of scale provided by large service providers.
This outsourcing process has been challenging, with cost overruns, missed deadlines, and vendor product shortfalls leading to frustrating and misguided project management efforts across both the IT and business communities.
To facilitate this transformational shift, the IKINDI OSP Peer-to-Peer Client Forum (“Client Forum”) was conceived to provide a safe-space for outsourcing clients to discuss issues and challenges clients face during the outsourcing transformation journey. This Forum creates a win-win for both client and vendor. The Forum offers numerous benefits, including gathering valuable client feedback, leveraging best practices from other firms, identifying recurring problems, fostering a sense of community, and enabling peer-to-peer support and engagement. Additionally, it drives product improvement and has the potential to reduce overall support costs.
