The private capital market is experiencing an overhaul in terms of increasing margin pressures, rising competition from non-traditional players, consolidation in the industry, talent war, and a stringent regulatory environment, resulting in seminal shifts in the fund management business. Fund managers are resolving these challenges by targeting new investor types, entering different jurisdictions, and enhancing their product suites to refine their top lines and improving efficiencies to maintain their bottom lines. As fund managers strive to scale their businesses and thrive in this evolving macroeconomic landscape, the need for optimum value delivery is gaining importance and an effective fund operating model is gaining traction.

This viewpoint will enable fund managers and their co-sourcing partners to understand the market challenges and provide best practices to address them. The findings are based on interviews with industry experts and a survey conducted between numerous leaders and business heads of private capital firms, hedge funds, and private wealth managers.
