Episode description
The margin pressure exerted by asset management clients is forcing global custodian banks on to an unsustainable path of rising asset values and shrinking revenues. Tokenization, while rich in opportunity, could exacerbate the problem by increasing asset safety and compliance risks without reducing the need to invest in new technology. Financial market infrastructures reeling under the same pressures offer no immediate release in the form of cost-sharing. To contain the effects, custodians are consolidating, forming partnerships and investing in front-to-back-office outsourcing services built on managing the flows of data consumed by asset managers.
