Are Managed Services & Cloud Finally Going to Deliver the Promised Efficiency Benefits?

Subscribe to our newsletter

Has the industry finally reached a cost tipping-point where we will see more wholesale adoption of managed services and cloud capabilities, or are other benefits now outweighing pure cost considerations?

Our panel of industry experts will discuss the speed at which these mainly cost-driven initiatives are now getting traction at the A-Team Group Intelligent Trading Summit in London next week, March 4 and how resistance is being overcome.

What skill sets and working practises are required to ensure that delivery by a managed services provider both meets the high standards expected, as well as comply with regulatory concerns? How far and wide can these services be deployed, with some now adopting them for real-time risk management and trade execution?

The panel will give insight into the pace of change currently taking place in the industry, as well as their views on the likely rate of industry adoption in the next few years and where that is likely to make the most tangible differences. Be ready to also put your own questions as to what could be the implications for your own organisations.
