CFA Institute has released the next report in our Future of Work in Investment Management series, exploring the future of skills and learning in the investment industry.
Previous reports in the Future of Work series addressed the context of work and the culture of work—that is, where and how work is done. The findings of these studies have been particularly relevant given the industry-wide move to a hybrid work environment in recent years.
Now, we turn our attention to the content of work in an environment where new markets, asset classes, data sources, and investing techniques demand an evaluation of the existing landscape of skills and learning.
This report identifies gaps between not only the supply and demand for skills but also in the interest in learning and the supply of expertise, outlines strategies for career development, and proposes structural changes to investment teams to better leverage the diversity of talent and the combined power of discrete but complementary skills.
