CHAPTER 2 WHY IS CLIENT-CENTRICITY IMPORTANT?
In order to be successful going forward wealth managemers will need to be client-centric
Changing socio-economic factors mean the wealth management business in Asia-Pacific is seeing new segments with differentiated needs
In developed markets the 2ndgeneration of wealthy are beginning to emerge
Affluent individuals in emerging markets are different from those in developed markets
Expatriate groups are rising in number
Remittance services
Offshore investment
Other expatriate needs
In order to attract these new wealthy segments wealth managers will need to differentiate through service and understanding
It is actual service and not the promise of product and service features that differentiate a wealth manager from its competitors
As part of its marketing any private bank or wealth manager will detail exactly what it is that differentiates them from their competitors. Each type of competitor will highlight what they believe are the attractive aspects of their products and services for clients and potential clients.
The large global players will highlight the merits of their global presence or their long history or both (it should be noted that these examples are taken from different private banks):
As well as highlighting the tailored relationship that will be enjoyed by clients:
Wealthy individuals need to feel their service providers understand their situation
When the market is not so favorable, those wealth managers that are client-centric are more likely to achieve retention
Poor investment reporting is a major bone of contention
Poor communication and a lack of transparency are key frustrations
Lack of individual treatment and responsive service

CHAPTER 3 CLIENT-CENTRIC BUSINESS MODELS
There are a three factors that wealth managers should consider when seeking to be client-centric
Client-centricity begins with segmentation
How can you service a client if you don't know what they need?
What are the major 'need' factors to consider?
The family office is the definition of client-centric
Ultimately a client manager must be perceived to be working for the client
Satisfaction comes with added value, which in turn comes through client-centricity
Empowering staff can also be a means to better client service
Incentivizing staff based on product quotas does not benefit the client
Ownership is more likely to instill an ethic of client service
