The market volatility brought by the pandemic and recent economic sanctions on Russia have increased inflationary pressures. At the same time, buy-side firms’ assets under management have grown significantly, while sell-side firms’ business volumes have increased.
Capital Markets (CM) firms are looking to route the incremental revenue toward technology investments to create a digitally enabled CM value chain. They see an increasing need to shift to an intelligent, automated, data-led, open, and accessible digital operating model that keeps costs low and offers an enhanced experience to customers and employees.
With a rise in IPOs, M&As, and the demand for investment research, sell-side firms are retiring their legacy systems to shift to a cloud-driven architecture to manage increasing client workloads and provide a seamless employee experience. Technology is the primary lever in bringing changes to the process value chain of IPOs and M&As. In this report, we discuss the key business-side priorities of CM firms, examine their technology implications and the investments made to address those priorities, evaluate the CM IT services market size, and consider the growth drivers of different Lines of Business (LoBs), geographies, and service lines. The study also features a CM IT outsourcing spend analysis across various LoBs, geographies, and IT service segments.
