Scope
- Assesses key emerging markets' potential such as China and India
- Predicts key product and service developments such as lending and client ownership
Report Highlights
India will become a highly important market for wealth management because wealth managers both domestic and international are able to establish the beginnings of a market with few obstacles, relative to the other emerging markets. Where there are regulatory restrictions, these are less problematic than those in China or the Middle East.
It is highly likely that over the next 20 years, wealth management will witness significant developments in the way that clients are segmented. Following from this, client service will change to complement the shift in emphasis, as factors other than the level of the client's wealth are taken into consideration.
Datamonitor research indicates that there are significant benefits in the area of liability management for the wealthy, and that the importance of liability management as part of wealth management will inevitably grow over the next 20 years, until it becomes a key service area.
