Recorded during OWIN26, Objectway’s Customer Conference, this video interview unfolds as a fluid and multi-voiced conversation in which our eminent kynote speakers engage in a shared reflection on the transformation of the wealth and asset management industry.

The dialogue develops organically through their complementary perspectives. Gianbattista Geroldi, Objectway’s CEO Italy, frames the discussion within a broader context marked by geopolitical uncertainty and increasing complexity, highlighting the evolution from traditional service provision to a partnership-driven model. In this view, technology becomes an enabler of scalable innovation, capable of combining stability, security, and standardisation with the flexibility required to respond to rapidly changing market dynamics.

This perspective is enriched by the contribution of Caroline Bouchy, Deputy General Manager at Indosuez Wealth Management Italia, part of the Crédit Agricole Group, who brings the voice of a global wealth management boutique. The focus shifts towards the expectations of clients—particularly new generations—and the qualities required of strategic partners. Innovation, understood not only as technological advancement but also as the ability to rethink processes and client interaction models, is presented alongside the importance of international reach and transparency as key drivers for building long-term trust.

Completing the conversation, Giorgio Solcia, Country Managing Director at CACEIS Bank, offers insight into a critical yet often less visible segment of the value chain: post-trade services and depositary functions. From this vantage point, the emphasis is placed on operational efficiency, control, and the industrialisation of processes, supported by automation and advanced technologies. The ability to ensure seamless integration across platforms and stakeholders emerges as a fundamental condition for the effective functioning of the entire ecosystem.

Together, these contributions shape a cohesive narrative in which the exchange between the three speakers provides a comprehensive view of the industry. The conversation moves seamlessly across different roles—from technology provider to wealth manager to post-trade specialist—illustrating how collaboration, integration, and shared strategic vision are increasingly central to addressing the challenges and opportunities of a rapidly evolving financial landscape.
