Business Update
A Note From John Sergides,
Chief Executive Officer
Staying ahead in alternatives means thinking differently.
The market is shifting—fast. From FX volatility to the rapid rise of private credit, asset managers are rethinking how they operate, where they scale, and how they future-proof. In this issue of MUFG Alt Insider, we dive into the drivers behind that momentum: the ripple effects of T+1 in the UK, the outsourcing strategies gaining traction, regulatory moves you need to know, and the growing power of collaborative, data-driven infrastructure.
Because in today’s environment, staying competitive isn’t just about adapting—it’s about anticipating what’s next.
