The Next Generation of Outsourcing: Is Component Outsourcing the Wave of the Future?

Today, many asset managers are exploring component outsourcing in an effort to boost their bottom line. This has changed dramatically from a few years ago when asset managers demanded much more customization in outsourcing deals - they wanted providers to replicate all of their in-house technology and operations. The main strategies were lift-out or full conversion outsourcing. The shift today is a move from a fixed cost structure to a variable cost structure that rises and falls with assets or transaction volumes. Component outsourcing is an increasingly more common option for firms to be able to align costs with their overall revenues.

This industry white paper by Thomson Reuters and Finix Business Strategies explores how Component Outsourcing can allow financial institutions to reduce cost, increase efficiencies and focus on their core competencies.
