November 10, 2010

More asset managers are hiring third parties to handle their middle- and back-office functions, as they redefine how they do business in the post-crisis environment. Managers of all sizes are outsourcing client reporting, performance reporting, compliance and trade operations in an effort to more fully focus on their core competencies. “We have seen the most growth in middle office outsourcing over the past year-and-a-half following the credit crunch.
