We are pleased to present the second edition of our research on assessing decision quality within the investment management industry.
This study addresses a gap in the existing literature, as the industry tends to focus on measuring stock and flow data broadly, yet overlooks how investment professionals transform data, information, and knowledge into evidence-based decisions. We hope you find the insights both original and practically applicable. This research project is the first of its kind and continues as annual initiative.
The report outlines multiple insights, five practical findings, and three conclusions on how to improve decision quality in investment management.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participating investment professionals who contributed through surveys and interviews, as well as to our trusted partners – Academy – Euronext Group, Bolsas y Mercados Españoles, Zagreb Stock Exchange Academy, the CFA Society Spain, CFA Society UK, BBVA Asset Management and Panthera Solutions – without whom the success of this research would not have been possible.
With kind regards,
