Synopsis

Abstract

This Financial Insights report examines the hedge fund industry, which is one of the most dynamic and fastest-growing sectors of the financial services industry and has an appetite for the latest investments in financial reporting, trading, and settlement technology. Understanding this industry in detail is critical for both technology providers and financial institutions looking to protect or grow their share of business in this rapidly growing sector. This report examines the challenges that will face the industry in the coming months and how hedge funds and their vendors should position their firms for further growth and success.

"The nature of the hedge fund industry is such that it touches every aspect of financial services, from prime brokerage to cash management. To be a successful provider, financial institutions will have to find a sales and relationship management mechanism that cuts across traditional product silos to provide an integrated solutions-based approach to servicing this sector." ? David Cox, group vice president, Global Banking and Insurance
