Many external challenges face the asset management industry, including demands for sustainable finance, volatility in capital markets, technological innovation, and cyber threats. Asset management firms must adopt resilient and dynamic business models to be successful in navigating further rafts of new rules, increasing regulatory divergence and greater supervisory scrutiny.
A lack of global standards and national nuances mean that regulators around the world are implementing detailed rules and guidance in different ways. Increasing regulatory divergence is causing complexity and challenges for cross-border asset managers in terms of how they manage and market their products.
The 13th edition of KPMG’s annual flagship Evolving Asset Management Regulation Report brings together a wide range of regulatory priorities, developments and proposals impacting the global asset management industry. Knowledge and insights of KPMG specialists around the world, has enabled us to identify three common regulatory themes for the UK, that impact all types and aspects of asset management businesses, and represent market opportunities.
