to store their data effectively?

Firms are making encouraging progress
in their tactical use of technology,
particularly in the areas of data
accessibility and client collaboration.

significant areas that
require attention.
Many firms are automating key tasks
but failing to exploit the full value of
the data they create.
And while the majority of respondents
recognise a significant shift is
coming, taking them from a focus on
compliance to the delivery of value-
added advisory services, they are not
where they need to be with their use
of technology to benefit.
