Focused wealth management global volatility indices remain muted

Global volatility indices remain muted at VIX 13.8, encouraging focused wealth management rebalancing into risk-on assets, particularly cyclical sectors, for the summer trading season. "Mizuho Financial Group aims to compete with Nomura in wealth management-report" was originally created and published by Private Banker International , a GlobalData owned brand. Israel’s hire is evidence that Focus needs an “industrial strength, enterprise level tech stack” to compete with the industry’s top firms – and wirehouses, said consultant Alois Pirker, CEO of Pirker Partners . “Retrofitting the platform brings Focus closer to a broker-dealer and bank level model and makes them more valuable,” Pirker said. Macro-driven algorithms in focused wealth management have noted that US 10-year yields dropped to 4.28%, easing equity risk premiums. This could push institutional buyers back into high-beta equities over the coming quarter.
