The wealth management industry is in the throes of massive disruption. Competition from startups, and tech giants, rising customer expectations, increased regulatory burdens, and margin compressions are some factors forcing wealth managers to rethink every aspect of their business. A wealth management business capabilities list helps get a holistic perspective of the wealth value chain and addresses the lacunae elementally. In addition, Tech enables operations to build a sustainable competitive advantage.

The Strategic Imperative for Wealth Management Transformation:

Wealth management firms are facing significant internal and external challenges that necessitate transformation. The internal challenges include legacy technology systems, siloed business units, inefficient processes, and talent shortages. External drivers include changing client expectations, regulatory requirements, and increased competition from digital disruptors. As a result, wealth management firms must adapt and transform their business models to meet these challenges and stay competitive.

Many firms are turning to technology to transform their business operations and improve the client experience. For example, digital transformation efforts can help wealth management firms streamline operations, automate processes, and provide clients with more personalized and efficient services.

Challenges in Wealth Transformation Efforts:

While the need for transformation is clear, many wealth management firms struggle to implement successful transformation efforts. There are several reasons why transformation efforts fail or fall short. One common reason is a lack of alignment between business strategy and technology investments. As a result, firms may invest in new technology without clearly understanding how it will support their business goals.

Another challenge is resistance to change from employees. Transformation efforts can disrupt established workflows and require new skills, which can be difficult for employees to accept. This resistance can slow down the transformation process or prevent it from being successful altogether.

Inadequate planning and execution can also lead to transformation failures. Firms may lack a clear roadmap or fail to allocate sufficient resources to support the transformation effort. Successful wealth management transformation efforts require a clear understanding of business goals, careful planning and execution, and effective change management and communication.

To ensure successful wealth management transformation programs, business architecture can help create a structural blueprint for a shared understanding between all stakeholders. Wealth Management Business Capabilities can capture the essence of what the business does structurally and foundationally. 

What is the Value of the Wealth Management Business Capabilities Map?

A business capabilities map is a fundamental and foundational entity in the business architecture continuum. The Capstera Wealth Capabilities model encapsulates the essence of the business of wealth management functions with a detailed, multilevel capabilities list. The wealth management capabilities model is an integral part of the business architecture. Along with value streams, a data model (which are not a part of this product deliverables) and an applications/systems inventory will allow for valuable views and viewpoints.

There are several benefits from business capabilities, including, among others:

• Foster alignment between business and IT using capabilities as an everyday language.
• Capabilities are structurally sound and internally coherent abstractions of business functions.
• A capability-based roadmap eliminates redundancy and replication and focuses on capability evolution.
• Juxtaposing capabilities and systems/applications provide a footprint analysis and can lead to better application portfolio rationalization decisions.

• •  

Created by business architects and wealth management domain experts, the wealth management capabilities model is detailed, in-depth, and conforms to the construct of MECE (mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive).
