Understanding fund distribution dynamics is critical to success in today's rapidly changing environment. The Distribution Report, written by Fundscape in association with Matrix Solutions, provides analysis, data and detailed commentary on trends in the fund distribution universe with broad coverage of wholesale aggregators (platforms and life and pension providers) as well as primary distribution channels such as IFAs, wealth managers and employee benefit consultants. Which products and sectors are being sold through which channels? How do we compare to other competitors? Essential reading for both distributors and fund managers, this report answers these and other all-important distribution questions. It enables readers to track developments by wholesale aggregation, channel, product wrapper, sector and much more. The Distribution Report is a quarterly report available from Q1 2011 on annual subscription. It uses actual sales data contributed by wholesale distributors and fund managers to Matrix Solutions’ Financial-Clarity database. It is a closed user-group publication with restricted circulation, which means that prospective subscribers must also subscribe to Financial-Clarity. What is Financial-Clarity?
