📊 Over the past 12 months, the largest US banks experienced notable increases, with JP Morgan Chase leading the way with a 42% jump in its share price. Meanwhile, HSBC and BNP Paribas saw gains of 16% and 15%, respectively As the European Banking Authority (EBA) proposes new regulations urging banks to assess significant ESG risks and enhance ongoing monitoring, concerns arise about Eurozone banks potentially lagging behind their US counterparts. The shift towards allocating more resources to ESG data and infrastructure, and curbing fossil fuel financing expansion could impact competitiveness This regulatory scrutiny could put pressure on banks in terms of profitability, said York Xiong, Director of Financial Institution Solutions at MioTech.

💡 Private markets are captivating asset managers, but bring monitoring challenges. As this article by Citywire explores, top private banks like HSBC and BNP Paribas now allocate up to 20% to alternatives. Why the draw despite liquidity barriers? The potential for outsized returns. Yet the piece also spotlights core considerations. Manager selection swings performance, underlining rigorous due diligence. Additionally, private assets suit specific investor profiles and objectives. As Deutsche Bank's Christian Nolting notes, “Thorough selection of vehicles is key.” At Freyda, we enable investors to tap into private markets’ possibilities without drowning in heightened monitoring burdens. Our AI-powered platform is designed for those seeking higher allocations and the associated illiquidity premium. We consolidate data and documents from disparate GPs and investments to deliver transparency across the portfolio. The result? Confidence in performance and streamlined oversight. Say goodbye to cobbled together spreadsheets and hello to automated control. Intrigued by increasing your private market allocation but hesitant about heightened monitoring pain?
