The role of the fund selector is evolving. What levers are triggering this transformation?   To address this question, FundsPeople (ES) organized the largest workshop ever held in Spain, aimed at the most important fund selectors in Spain and Portugal. Our Managing Director and Head of Investments, Western Europe, David Cienfuegos, CAIA, opened this highly anticipated event with a unique perspective on the key global trends in this field.   In both the institutional and private wealth sectors, the fund selector can transform into a true "solutions designer." But how can this be achieved? Here are our top takeaways from David’s presentation:   In the institutional landscape:   ✅ The role of the fund selector has evolved, elevating their responsibility to a strategic role reporting directly to the Chief Investment Officer. In that context, the fund selector plays a crucial role particularly in organizations with both internal and external asset management capabilities due to their independence and objective perspective in evaluating manager skills.   ✅ The fund selector of tomorrow not only selects but also designs tailored solutions to meet client needs. The rise of the total portfolio approach (TPA) by the largest institutional investors worldwide generates the need for fund selectors to broaden their horizons towards genuine, sustainable, and diverse ideas in modern portfolio construction.   ✅ Given the growth and relevance of private markets, the need for greater specialization and knowledge in this field is now a reality for fund selectors.   In the private wealth landscape:   ✅ The financial wellbeing of employees needs improvement. Our latest 2024 Wellbeing Diagnostic Study revealed a significant discrepancy between financial wellbeing support provided by employers and the support employees desire.   ✅ When combined with investors’ focus on “social” metrics and the corresponding influence on corporate boards, it encourages executives to seek solutions for this dilemma.   ✅ Fund selectors face a journey to become designers of tailored solutions in response to new expected corporate demand to facilitate policies that reflect their values into savings solutions to meet the needs of their employees.   A huge thank you to FundsPeople for involving us in this outstanding event.   #WTWINV_EMEA #Investments #CapitalAssetAllocator #FundSelector #AssetManagement
