A changing market landscape, a recovering global economy, increasing price volatility, and the growing need for digital operations are currently shaping the market ecosystem for the investment banking sell-side business.
Growing market consolidation, IPOs through Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) and Direct Public Offerings (DPOs) beyond the traditional IPOs, an evolving regulatory landscape, the emergence of FinTechs, and technology interventions in process flows present both challenges and opportunities to investment banks.
We believe that investment banks should enter into meaningful partnerships and invest in technology to drive innovation, run operations efficiently, and shield themselves from tech-savvy competitors. The future entails disruption in the process value chain of IPO and M&A processes at various levels via cloud, data, Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Machine Learning (ML) / Natural Language Processing (NLP), emerging technologies, and a platform-led approach.
