JP Morgan Heads Digital Wealth Readiness Rankings

The report assessed the digital readiness of the 15 leading wealth management companies by AUM, scoring the players against indicators including the breadth of their digital portfolios, the scale of their fintech acquisitions and investment and the activities in key areas including artificial intelligence, blockchain and quantum computing.

Four companies were identified as Champion companies which have embraced the need for digital transformation, have committed to significant R&D in innovative technologies and have already deployed them at the backend or in customer facing products, and have reached out to third party partners across the ecosystem. JP Morgan headed the rankings, followed by Fidelity Investments, with Blackrock and Vanguard in joint third place.

Changing Audience, Changing Priorities

The report emphasised the need for wealth managers to understand, and respond to, the fact that not only will millennials seek to interact with them increasingly via digital channels, but that their expectations and demands from funds will differ significantly from their predecessors.

According to report author Dr Windsor Holden, Principal Research Consultant at Kaleido Intelligence, "There is a far greater awareness of environmental issues and a related desire to invest in "green" or socially responsible funds, as well as in technology funds. Similarly, there has been a paradigm shift in goals, needs and lifestyles, which will need to be recognised by the wealth managers so that they can present appropriate investment options."

Investment Soaring into Wealth Management Fintechs

Kaleido estimates that over the past decade, approximately $4.6 billion has been invested by VC firms into robo-advisory fintech platforms, of which $1.8 billion has been invested since June 2020. One company, the Canadian startup Wealthsimple, accounts for 19% of all VC investment in that time, including $610 million earlier this year.
