Objectway in WealthTech100 list of tech companies transforming the global investment and banking industries

 

Objectway, a leader in the Digital Wealth & Asset Management software, has been included in the annual WealthTech100 list for the third year in a row.

The 2021 WealthTech100 was launched today by specialist research firm FinTech Global. The prestigious list recognises the world’s most innovative tech solution providers addressing the digital transformation challenges and opportunities faced by asset managers, private banks and financial advisors.

The WealthTech industry has grown dramatically over the last four years. Total funding to the sector has more than tripled since 2016 from $2.8bn to $9.3bn at the end of 2020, according to figures published by FinTech Global.

As a result, this year’s process to identify the leading 100 companies in the WealthTech space was more competitive than ever. A panel of analysts and industry experts voted from a list of over 1,000 businesses. The finalists were awarded a place on the list for their innovative use of technology to solve a significant industry problem, or to generate cost savings or efficiency improvements across the investment value chain.

FinTech Global Director Richard Sachar said, “Established banks and investment firms need to be aware of the latest innovations to remain competitive in the current market, which is heavily focused on digital distribution and increased use of customer data, and even more so post Covid-19. The WealthTech100 list helps senior management filter through all the vendors in the market by highlighting the leading companies in sectors such as client acquisition, financial planning, portfolio management and digital brokerage.”

Luigi Marciano, Objectway’s Group CEO and Founder, commented, The WealthTech 100 lists the firms that wealth and asset management leaders need to consider for their digital transformation strategies and new business models. The consecutive inclusion in the top 100 makes us proud and fosters our plans to constantly improve our cutting-edge proposition and effective delivery.

Objectway Recognised By Celent Among The Leaders In Wealth Management Solutions In North America

 

Objectway, a leader in the Digital Wealth & Asset Management software, was mentioned as a distinguished vendor in the February report Front-to-Middle office Platforms: North American Wealth Management Edition 2021 by Celent.

The report examined the leading North American providers of Front-to-Middle Office platforms. Celent considered as fundamental characteristics of these solutions the components supporting certain key workflows, such as the provision of an exclusive client experience, and an end-to-end advisory process in an integrated workflow and single infrastructure.

In parallel with the analysis conducted by Celent, Objectway is seeing how digital client engagement and lifecycle management are among the main drivers in the wealth management industry at a global level.

Firms are looking more and more for integrated solutions that are able to make all the advisor’s activity and tasks available as a cockpit.

Bringing the client relationship to centre stage entails growing demand for augmented intelligence to deliver mass customised investment proposals, and for an opti-channel mix to collaborate and interact with digital-savvy investors.

Moreover, a hybrid, multi-cloud approach is gathering increasing acceptance by financial institutions, who are adopting business critical capabilities in the easiest way. Objectway On-Cloud already supports over 100 clients with more than one trillion Euros of assets under management.

Further to confirming the findings illustrated in the parent report of this series, dedicated to the EMEA region, in this latest research paper Celent commended Objectway for “the completeness of the solution and the dedication that the team has demonstrated to bolstering the usability of each module.”

“North American wealth managers are facing a challenging year ahead, as a result of existing trends, such as fee compression, and for unexpected accelerators towards digital solutions, like the pandemic,” affirmed Luigi Marciano, Objectway Group CEO and Founder. “The challenge for a performant and future-proof front-to-middle office system is giving firms the most effective and state-of-the-art tools to serve more clients and manage increased AuM, in less time.”
