Australia Asset Management Market Overview, 2029

The Australia Asset Management market is expected to grow with more than 26% CAGR from 2024 to 2029.

The Australian asset management market boasts a long and established history, dating back to the 1930s with the introduction of unit trusts. However, it wasn't until the 1980s that the industry witnessed significant growth, fueled by the compulsory superannuation scheme for all Australian employees. This scheme continues to be a cornerstone of the market, contributing the majority of assets under management (AUM). Today, the market offers a diverse range of products, including listed and unlisted equities, fixed income, property, and alternative investments, catering to various investor needs and risk appetites. The Australian asset management landscape reflects a strong focus on long-term investment horizons and a preference for defensive strategies. This can be attributed to factors like compulsory superannuation, which encourages saving for retirement, and a culturally ingrained risk-averse approach. However, recent trends show a growing interest in alternative investments, such as infrastructure and private debt, as investors seek diversification and potentially higher returns in a low-interest-rate environment. Additionally, the digitalization of wealth management is gaining traction, with investors increasingly demanding user-friendly platforms and access to technology-driven investment solutions.

According to the research report "Australia Asset Management Market Overview, 2029," published by Bonafide Research, the Australia Asset Management market is expected to grow with more than 26% CAGR from 2024 to 2029. Several key drivers are propelling the growth of the Australian asset management market. The compulsory superannuation scheme remains the primary engine, with AUM expected to rise steadily as the Australian population ages. Additionally, the growing wealth of the middle class is creating a larger pool of potential investors seeking professional asset management services. Furthermore, the increasing focus on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors is influencing investment decisions and creating opportunities for specialized asset managers catering to this demand.

Despite its positive outlook, the Australian asset management market faces significant challenges. The low-interest-rate environment continues to put pressure on fees, forcing asset managers to innovate and find new sources of revenue. Additionally, the rise of passive investing and the emergence of robo-advisors pose a threat to traditional asset managers who rely on actively managed funds. Regulatory changes aimed at enhancing transparency and protecting investors further add complexity to the operating environment. Successfully navigating these challenges will be crucial for asset managers to maintain their competitiveness and thrive in the evolving Australian market.

The Australian asset management market operates within a robust and well-defined regulatory framework, designed to protect investors and ensure market stability. Understanding these policies and restrictions is crucial for anyone entering or operating within this space. One of the key regulatory bodies is the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), responsible for regulating financial services and products. ASIC enforces the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and its associated regulations, which set out the licensing requirements, conduct obligations, and disclosure rules for asset managers. To operate as an authorized representative of a managed investment scheme (MIS), individuals must hold an Australian Financial Services and Credit License (AFSL) issued by ASIC. This license signifies the individual's competence and compliance with the relevant standards. Additionally, the responsible entity (RE) of the MIS, which could be the fund manager or a trustee, also needs to hold an AFSL.

Looking ahead, the Australian asset management market presents a compelling picture. Driven by a robust superannuation system, a digitally savvy population, and a growing appetite for wealth creation, the industry is well-positioned to capitalize on the growth potential. Embracing technological advancements, navigating regulatory complexities, and fostering trust with investors will be crucial for market participants to thrive in this dynamic and evolving space.
