Investment Management

Our cohesive approach provides clients with a well-established service in all their geographical markets. Our clients have access to professional assistance characterised by commitment to national markets, and an understanding of the commercial and cultural differences between countries.

Our multinational investment management and fund professionals include senior partners who have a wealth of global client experience and relationships with many of the major market players, regulators and leading industry bodies. We listen to clients and understand. The result is a focus on the issues that really matter.

It's KPMG's view that building strong, positive relationships reinforced by trusted brands is the single biggest emerging force in determining the future of the sector. At the most fundamental level, manufacturers and distributors will be engaged in a battle for ownership of the customer, as customer retention issues come to the fore alongside the ability to deliver consistent investment performance. Institutional customers will continue to exercise very real influence, they will increasingly demand greater robustness and also transparency.

Global Publication
We are delighted to announce the launch of KPMG International’s 2009 report on global investment management.

Our industry has been fundamentally reshaped by the credit crisis.

Our report, Renewing the promise: Time to mend relationships in investment management, draws on the findings from our global survey of investment managers, investors and senior executives and provides analysis on how the industry will develop as a result.

Overwhelmingly, results indicated that if investment firms want to grasp the potential of this reshaping, mending relationships with investors, regulators and other stakeholders will be a key priority.

KPMG International commissioned Datamonitor to undertake the research. It includes a survey of 288 senior executives in 29 countries and further in-depth interviews with 22 executives from some of the most prominent investment managers and wealth managers. Both, the survey and the in-depth interviews were conducted during February and March 2009. Geographically, 30 percent were based in Western Europe, 30 percent in Asia Pacific, 30 percent in North America and 10 in the Middle East.
