Key highlights
Global Banks have realized the importance of focusing on Wealth
Management as a sustainable and less riskier business
Growth in wealth and high % of untapped wealth provides good
impetus for PBs to consider it as a future oriented business
High cost business model compared to institutional business means
that scale & breadth is needed for success

Cost to income ratio have been running north of 70% with some boutique firms reporting CIR of 90% and above.
Effect of such high CIR will be felt in the moderate to long term
Compensation expense in boutique PB firms are at level of 70%+ of total compensation expenses while for bulge
firms, it is at 50% levels
Profit margins in Private Banking industry have continued to decline since the global financial crisis and have
reached a very low level of almost 20 basis points

Key Challenges Faced by Private Banks in Asia
Organizational Setup: Lack of alignment of front, middle and back office and
leadership challenges in teams and markets
Performance Management: Weak performance management methodology and pay
for performance approach
Front Support Cost: Increasing cost in front and selected middle office
functions (e.g. ARM, Business Managers etc.)
Platform Inefficiency & Regulatory Cost: Lack of holistic platform to support increased regulatory
requirements (e.g. AML, KYC, FATCA)
Demand for RMs: High demand for RMs who can move assets leading to
overcompensation and reduced productivity
Client Behavior: High price sensitive clients who want control and have
mismatched expectations on risk-return
Quality of Advice: Ineffective advisory process of RMs with focus on sales
orientation rather than advisory orientation
Changing Regulations: Growing sophistication of regulators and increased
scrutiny on sales process and pricing policies

Q: (on a 10-point spectrum): Please indicate your preference for working with multiple wealth management firms (who each have a specific area
of expertise) vs. a single firm (that can meet your full range of needs)
The global HNW market is transforming in the debate around engagement.
Even in the emerging
markets where the
complexity of assets
may be high, the
trend is toward
working with a single
firm. Notably, in Asia,
the clients most want
a single firm with the
ability to access
multiple experts

Crucially, global
average is 26%

Wealth management has
evolved in APAC almost in
spite of itself. But we are now
entering an industrialisation
of the model where future
profits are dependent on
better sustained insight on all
aspects of the business. A
lack of intelligence would be
a great loss ….
