What fund management M&A means for advisers
from FT Adviser
There has been a raft of mergers and acquisitions in the asset management and platform space as waves of consolidation continue to grip both markets. In the asset management sector, major names like Jupiter and Merian have come together, while adviser platforms continue to be snapped up by big asset managers and private equity firms alike. Both industries are experiencing a downward pressure on fees and many firms within the market have seen a difficult year as assets under management tumbled in March as global markets crashed. So, what does the future hold for these cornerstones of adviser interactions? In this episode, reporter Imogen Tew is joined by Ben Yearsley, investment consultant at Fairview Investing, and Mike Barrett, consultant at the Lang Cat to discuss the trend and what it means for advisers. Then Imogen talks about the headlines of the week with fellow reporters Rachel Mortimer and Chloe Cheung.
