Innovating Without Adding Complexity: The Wealth Management Challenge in the Platform Era

Technology, data, the cloud and artificial intelligence are transforming the wealth management sector. However, this innovation must not be an end in itself; it must be scalable and capable of simplifying processes without creating new complexity.

Luigi Marciano, founder and Group CEO of Objectway, outlined the vision underpinning the group’s growth: shifting from a software-centric to a platform-centric approach to support private banks, asset managers and wealth managers across the entire value chain. This is a trajectory built on long-term partnerships, customisable solutions and a pan-European approach to the market.

Alongside the industrial and technological dimensions, the role of capital as a catalyst for growth emerges. Luigi Sbrozzi, a Cinven partner, explained why Cinven invested in Objectway and how private equity can contribute to international growth, consolidation and continuous technological innovation.
