Webinar 1: Strategic Operating Model Design:
FusionExperience, the specialist service provider to the financial services community, will be running a series of webinars to assist asset management companies to adopt a strategic approach to operations management. The free webinars will be open to all individuals within financial services who are involved with operations implementation, and can be accessed via its website.
There are four sessions planned throughout October, November and December. The first – scheduled for Monday 18th October at 1pm- will address the issue of strategic operating model design. It is increasingly apparent that it has become vital to have a Strategic Operating Model Design, and the risks of not having a strategy are sometimes dangerously overlooked. The webinar will then look at the very significant changes in supplier capability over the last five years and the implications for asset managers, before looking at a case study of a rapidly growing asset manager that has transformed their operating capability at the same time as making very significant cost savings.
The importance of a strategic approach to operations management has never been more crucial.
As the entire financial services industry seeks to make substantial cost savings in many different areas, having a clear idea of how your business can run more efficiently, which areas of your business are suitable for outsourcing, and how to get the best out of existing outsourcing contracts is absolutely key. The purpose of these webinars is to encourage the financial services industry to think seriously around these issues and to hopefully introduce ideas to attendees about how to streamline processes and operate in a more time, and cost efficient way.
The webinars will be run by Gordon Easden, a leading expert in Operating Models and Outsourcing in financial services. A summary of the webinar with the key highlights will be available once it has been completed, along with further written commentary on the themes and issues raised.
