AI Transformation Without Adding Headcount

Asset managers want to grow assets under management without growing teams in proportion. Technical debt and manual workarounds stand in the way, and AI offers new ways to remove them. 

One of the world's largest asset managers was transforming into a product- and service-first organization to support planned growth.

The asset manager needed to: 

• Scale assets under management without scaling teams in proportion. 
• Address significant technical debt and manual workarounds for broken processes. 
• Bring its organization along with the change. 

Sia supported the program across multiple workstreams: 

• Target state blueprint: a data and AI readiness assessment and a blueprint for the target state. 
• Organization and change management: multiple 'Art of the Possible' workshops. 
• Investments execution: execution support through forward-deployed business analysts and project managers. 

Sia enabled the client to stand up a multi-year AI transformation and helped the organization adopt the change, including piloting first-of-their-kind use cases in asset management. 

By combining data and AI readiness, change management and hands-on execution, Sia helps asset managers grow without adding complexity.
