Recommendation

The critical structures and ecosystems of the world’s capital markets are developing and changing as market, technological and political trends take hold. Industry revenues in 2016 rose from the previous year, but investment banks’ share of those revenues declined, as value continued to migrate to competitors such as boutique firms, clearinghouses and exchanges and information providers. getAbstract recommends this expert study from professionals at the Boston Consulting Group to those working in investment banks, exchanges, clearinghouses and other enterprises toiling in the global capital markets. 

Take-Aways

  • Investment banks’ share of total global capital market revenues has dropped, as nonbank competitors grab a growing piece of the revenue pie.
  • Clearinghouses, exchanges and trading venues – like Nasdaq and the CME – saw 5% revenue gains in 2016, mainly from higher trading volumes.
  • Information providers such as Thomson Reuters realized income gains of 4%, as regulatory challenges and lower market liquidity bolstered demand for their services.
