At that time, our joint study was one of only a handful focusing on social media in the asset management industry, and was certainly a pioneer publication in the European marketspace. The report’s conclusions were both unexpected and illuminating, sparking more conversations, meetings and discussions than any of our previous collaborative projects. Three years on, social media usage in our industry has evolved rapidly, and the factors driving that change have also intensifi ed. As the pace of change in the social media environment is brisk, we have elected to republish our study, to include updated information on all aspects of the intersection between social media and asset management.
