The service will be accessible by asset managers operating across the world.

Accenture has partnered with UK benchmarking firm Investit to launch a new analytics service for investment managers to help them benchmark, analyse and improve the performance of their business.

The service will provide industry research and expertise to the asset management sector, addressing issues including client and product management, automation, cyber security and big data, Accenture said in a statement. 

Investit chief executive Catherine Doherty and her team of industry specialists have joined Accenture’s asset management practice in forming the new service.
