Eric Schatzker, Eddie Fishman, Jeremy Shipman, Gerald Beeson, John McCormick, Ilana Weinstein
Industry leaders emphasize that achieving sustainable returns now requires replacing individual skill with robust infrastructure and repeatable processes to navigate an increasingly efficient, zero-sum market environment. As structural alpha diminishes due to regulatory changes and market maturation, successful firms are converging quantitative and fundamental approaches while leveraging scale to aggregate data and talent. Looking ahead, the sector is trending toward consolidation where large multi-manager platforms and specialized boutiques coexist, demanding greater transparency and strategic partnerships with investors to maintain competitive advantages.

Building Funds of Tomorrow: Technology and Talent in the Future of Asset Management
David Francl, Teresa Barger, Michael DeAddio, Eddie Fishman, Taylor O'Malley
Eddie Lampert, Michael Shapiro, and Taylor W. Bellows discuss how integrating human and machine intelligence drives productivity, accelerates idea velocity, and refines alpha generation while shifting risk management and compliance to automated systems. The panel emphasizes that firms prioritize building proprietary technology only for core differentiators, opting instead to purchase mature third-party solutions for operational efficiency and to mitigate overfitting through rigorous data validation. Furthermore, the discourse highlights evolving workforce strategies, including "farm team" talent acquisition, the cultivation of diverse and values-driven cultures, and the use of behavioral analytics to monitor non-market risks across global teams.
