The digital age gave professional investors near-instantaneous access to a vast trove of data, but organizational silos have sometimes prevented subsequent insights from spreading widely. That’s changing, however, as new digital platforms make it easier for money managers to share real-time information with colleagues across asset classes and strategies.
Better, faster information-sharing has three major potential benefits for clients:
- It creates a “hive mind.” Each portfolio manager (PM) and analyst calls on different knowledge and experience when assessing new information, which can lead to more insights—or at least inspire provocative questions.
- It used to be that only clients in a particular strategy would benefit from the proprietary information or insights of any given PM or analyst. When information is widely shared, however, clients in a broader span of investment strategies stand to benefit.
- Digitalizing information sets the stage for future innovation, including the application of machine-learning technologies.
