Introduction

Why, where, and how are the world’s asset owners driving transformation in 2023?

Since 2021, our “Asset Owners Transformation” survey has been providing a statistical, global perspective on this question – serving as a key input into the change strategies and project planning across the asset owner spectrum. By highlighting the key industry trends and challenges in investment operations transformation, this research is intended to help sovereign funds, pension funds, insurers and all profiles of asset owners to define the right operational journey for them – leveraging the collective experience of the global industry.

Led by Milestone Group, RBC and Citisoft, this year’s survey and report draws on statistical insights from over 150 asset owners globally, with a view to providing specific clarity on a number of key questions:
