A word from the judges...

“FactSet earns Highly Commended Front Office Solution recognition for its strong contribution to modernising front-office capabilities across Asia’s private banking and wealth management sector. Its platform addresses a core industry challenge in APAC — fragmented advisor workflows — by unifying key functions such as prospecting, portfolio monitoring, research distribution and reporting within a single, connected environment,” said Audrey Raj, editor of Asian Private Banker.

“A notable strength lies in FactSet’s ability to embed data, analytics and insights directly into the tools advisors already use, including CRM systems and digital collaboration platforms. This reduces friction, enhances usability and supports more informed, timely decision-making in client interactions. The platform’s lifecycle-based design further ensures continuity across the client journey, from onboarding through to ongoing engagement.

“With a growing regional client base and continued investment in cloud and AI-ready capabilities, FactSet is well positioned to support wealth managers as they scale personalised, data-driven advisory services in an increasingly competitive and digital-first landscape.”
