A total of 177 professionals drawn from Funds Europe’s readership participated in the survey that was conducted online in early 2020. For some questions, the number of responses was less than this total because of dropouts.
The section of the industry that most respondents work in is fund administration (31%). This was followed by fund manufacturing, which accounted for 21% of respondents.
A total of 18% identified with distribution, and the same percentage with fund platform functions. Market infrastructure and technology each accounted for 6% of respondents.
Most respondents are based in the major fund domiciles of Luxembourg (21%), France (19%) and the UK (12%). Nine per cent of respondents are located in Ireland and the same again in Germany.
Any commentary given about the results or more widely about the industry is that of Funds Europe and is not necessarily shared by CACEIS.
