Rockland, MA – January 31, 2022 – Cutter Associates, a leading global provider of research and consulting services for the investment management industry, announces its 2022 research agenda. Topics were selected based on voting by the firm’s global membership of nearly 200 leading asset managers, wealth managers, insurance companies, and public funds.

“Members play an integral role in shaping our annual research agenda,” said Gina McCafferty, Head of Research at Cutter. “Their input helps us focus on the most pressing industry topics, and their active engagement in surveys and analyst interviews allows us to provide in-depth analysis, coupled with insightful predictions, that helps inform their decision-making.”

This year’s research will center on four core themes for asset management and wealth management: Strategic Drivers, Modern Client Experience and Digital Experience, Organizational Excellence and Firm Management, and Tools of the Trade. The research will be shared via in-depth reports, as well as meeting presentations and on-demand videos. Members also have the opportunity to hear from their peers on exclusive webcasts and network via an active online community.

“There is a true collaboration between our research team and our members,” said Cutter CEO John Clark. “And that partnership is further enhanced by Cutter consultants who offer hands-on knowledge about the issues and challenges they are addressing with our clients around the world.”
