Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – As the asset management industry evolves with new technologies and shifting client needs, hedge funds face both opportunities and challenges. To remain competitive, firms must stay agile and efficient. A roundtable hosted by HedgeNordic, with support from IG Prime, Enfusion, and MSCI, brought together Nordic hedge fund COOs and service providers to discuss industry trends and strategies for adaptation.

Key topics included adapting operational structures to meet client demands while balancing technology investment with cost optimization. The discussion highlighted the rise of separately managed accounts (SMAs) and their role in offering tailored solutions, despite added operational complexity. Efficient integration across front, middle, and back offices, supported by Enfusion’s cloud-native solutions, is essential for enhancing agility and data transparency.

AI-driven automation is also transforming asset management by optimizing tasks like data processing, compliance, and risk analysis, with MSCI providing insights into AI’s impact on decision-making and risk management. Additionally, the balance of insourcing versus outsourcing is crucial for operational control and cost efficiency, with IG Prime advising on managed services.

Amid rising costs and fee pressures, asset managers are exploring technology-driven cost optimization and partnerships to enhance productivity and meet investor expectations. This roundtable offered strategies to address these industry shifts and improve operational resilience.
