External Investment Management Research
Learn about how, when and why advisors employ investment outsourcing as part of their practice management strategy.
Financial advisors are becoming more open to outsourcing the investment management of client assets. This is a topic in which Northern Trust Asset Management has deep interest. We’ve surveyed advisors about their investment outsourcing attitudes since 2010. Take a look at our most recent survey results and our historical research to learn about the changing attitudes of financial advisors, and their clients, on this practice management strategy.

This ongoing research program provides insight into advisors’ experiences with using external asset managers — or their decision to keep investment management in house. This year, we also sought to understand what impact, if any, the new Department of Labor (DOL) Fiduciary Rule might have on investment advisors’ attitudes about using third-party asset managers when the rule takes effect in April 2017.
