The line between asset management and wealth management is disappearing. Margin compression, the blurring of public and private markets, and clients demanding outcomes — not just products — are forcing both sides to move closer together. This article breaks down what's driving the shift, what it means for how firms compete, and why integrated platforms and account structures like SMAs and UMAs are becoming the new battleground. 

As private markets move from standalone investments into managed accounts, the industry faces a fundamentally different level of transaction volume and operational complexity. Explore InvestCloud’s perspective on why capturing the opportunity requires a new operating model built for wealth management scale.

Lower trading costs and modern technology have enabled advisors and wealth managers to offer personalized portfolios to a much broader audience of mass affluent investors. In this article, Charles River discusses the industry drivers and challenges firms face when launching portfolio personalization at enterprise scale.

Although index providers play a foundational role in the index-based products and asset allocation model portfolios now widely used in U.S. wealth management, they remain underutilized. Research from S&P Dow Jones Indices and Cerulli Associates explores how this market uses index-based products and assesses how asset managers, asset allocation model portfolio providers, wealth manager home offices, and financial advisors can better leverage index providers.
