It will help investment marketers better understand content and audience trends, and assist them in developing their content strategies.

 

Key Takeaways Q1 2024:

 

  • Insights into interest-rate sensitive asset classes and markets have engaged well, as the industry continued to communicate to investors what potential changes in the current macroeconomic environment may mean for portfolios.
  • Engagement with alternative assets and strategies increased over the period. However, the interest was directed not towards hedge funds, nor towards private equity (or private credit), but towards real estate.
  • Perhaps ESG content needs re-evaluating. The first quarter saw a decline in both the number of ESG-related pieces being published by asset managers and in the number of downloads (a proxy measure for interest) from our members.
