As the alternative assets industry continues to grow, Preqin is launching an initiative examining the Future of Alternatives. In conjunction with key industry participants, we take a five-year look into the future to see where the market will be, what changes fund managers are planning for and how investors plan to invest in 2023. This contribution is provided by Chad Longenecker, Managing Director - Alternative Investment Fund Services at SEI Investment Manager Services. We have seen AI technologies introduced into the asset management space in recent years mainly on the RPA side of things, helping to improve process flows and eliminate inefficiencies. Going forward, however, we feel that AI will have the greatest impact in the realm of big data, from the GP's collection of disparate and varied datasets to analyzing it for portfolio construction and delivering increased levels of insightful transparency to the LP community.
