Global Asset Management Survey

The Global Asset Management Survey is the largest of its kind, capturing data from ~250 participants around the world, representing 60 percent of global AUM (more than 100 firms and greater than 80 percent of AUM in North America alone), and 80% of the top 20 global managers. We provide over 15,000 benchmarks across growth, revenue, cost, profitability, scale, and productivity at the global, regional, and country level.

Executives can benchmark their firms against any of our multiple standard peer groups (based on country and region, size, client segment focus, product mix, and ownership model) or create custom peer groups to ensure a true “apples to apples” comparison. Our intuitive web platform WAMinsights enables executives to drill deeper into benchmarking data by client segment, asset class, and cost category (by function and cost type) to uncover granular opportunities to increase growth and profitability.

The Global Asset Management Survey is the longest-running economic survey in the industry, with a track record of 20+ years. Our team of benchmarking professionals leverages McKinsey’s consulting experience as well as knowledge and data gathered from years of analysis to ensure the benchmarks and definitions are precise, relevant, and consistent.
