As artificial intelligence moves from hype to adoption, asset managers are exploring how AI can enhance decision-making, boost productivity, and drive operational efficiency across the investment lifecycle.
Kicking off the IMAS AI Series, this inaugural session introduces “The Investment Wheel” – a practical framework developed to map AI opportunities across front, middle, and back-office functions.
This session will feature real-world perspectives on how AI is being applied in areas such as research, portfolio construction, compliance, and client servicing. A panel discussion will follow, with senior leaders from the investment industry discussing where AI is delivering impact today, what has worked, what hasn’t, and what’s needed to unlock its full potential.
