Funds Europe October-November 2023

Funds_Europe_Oct-Nov_2023

In the October-November issue of Funds Europe, we spotlight the evolving sector of ETF Administration. Our exclusive research uncovers the increasing importance of geographical coverage for ETF issuers and administrators, highlighting the need for strategic global positioning in today's interconnected financial markets.

The issue also features an engaging interview with Thomas Richter, CEO of Germany’s BVI, who discusses the impact of regulatory constraints on the global competitiveness of European asset managers. His insights offer a unique perspective on balancing regulatory compliance with market growth.

Additionally, we present an in-depth analysis of the role of sustainability in asset management. Our research indicates that while ESG factors are integral to risk management, their application has notable variation across European countries. Complementing this, our coverage of private markets explores the growing investor influence and the emergence of new investment structures. The issue is rounded off with the introduction of the Funds Europe Top50, showcasing firms that are leading in growth and innovation in the asset management industry.
