The past few years have been highly challenging and transformative for the Canadian asset and wealth management market. The already competitive segment has witnessed significant technological disruption and increased customer expectations. To stay relevant in the changing marketplace, financial portfolio management firms are adopting new strategies to deliver high-quality, frictionless service experiences for customers.
According to a report by Mordor Intelligence, the growth of the Canadian asset management market has outpaced both the U.S. and global industries, with assets under management rising by 14 percent to U.S. $3.6 trillion. This significant growth can be attributed to the rapid growth of the Canadian fintech market and the increasing investments in alternatives by Canadian investment managers.
To enhance service delivery, wealth managers are digitizing front-to-back experiences at pace. Despite the speed and customization offered by technological advancements, the traditional face-to-face service model remains irreplaceable. By building out advisor capability and capacity, wealth management firms are enhancing customer relationships and prioritizing seamless connectivity and service delivery across digital and personal touchpoints. At the same time, leading managers are designing and implementing an end-to-end, goals-based approach to deliver holistic services that meet and exceed customer expectations.
