Many factors – changing economic/financial conditions, evolving demographics and regulatory as well as technological developments – will impact asset allocation in the coming years.
In anticipation of the changes, the Mid-Term Review of the Capital Markets Union Action Plan set out new priorities in a number of areas concerning asset allocation: i) fostering retail investment; ii) increasing long-term, infrastructure and sustainable investment; and iii) removing barriers to cross-border investment.
