Future of Work in Investment Management
Nearly 80% of industry leaders expect greater changes to the world of work in the next 5–10 years; changes in roles, skills, work methods, workplace features, and compensation and incentives. The first signs from the COVID disruption indicate that this trend will accelerate.
The investment industry has been extremely resilient through the challenges of COVID thus far, but the longer-term effects on the industry are likely to be much greater. The consequences of the forced experiment with remote work, the lessons learned along the way, and the social changes in worker attitudes set the stage for new ways of working.
In the Future of Work in Investment Management , we explore the changes investment organizations and investment professionals are likely to make as they reassess the context of careers, the content of work, and the culture of organizations. We suggest that the “where, what, and how” of work are undergoing simultaneous transformations.
This report is the first in a series on the Future of Work in Investment Management, which will continue through 2021 and beyond.
