The future of wealth management: KPMG Connected Enterprise

Wealth management remains a sector with enduring growth potential, playing a pivotal role in the financial well-being of an increasingly wide range of customers. The main players now have an opportunity to ‘own’ financial advice and become a central part of customers’ lives, offering digitally enhanced, personalized service.

However, traditionally strong revenues and profitability are under threat from growing competition, including established financial institutions and new entrants. Low-cost, DIY investing, heightened regulatory scrutiny, the need to invest in technology, and a talent shortage all put a strain on established business models.

This paper looks at the key signals of change for the sector, possible future winning business models, and the connected capabilities to help compete and thrive in what promises to be an exciting few years.
