The Next Horizon

Andrew Schlossberg:  

[TITLE CARD:  Andrew Schlossberg, President & CEO, Invesco]

We're really in a technology renaissance right now. If you're expecting things to slow down  you're gonna be disappointed. And so thinking about innovation, thinking about how we can apply that for all of our stakeholders is really exciting.

[TITLE CARD: Making Private Markets Less Private]

Andrew Schlossberg:

I think the individual investor’s future is very bright.

Andrew Schlossberg:

Here at Invesco we're really excited about getting private markets into the hands of individual investors. What has historically been an institutional asset class is becoming more democratized.

Andrew Schlossberg:  

Given that we are a large private market asset manager and we serve individual investors, we're the perfect combination of somebody that can serve that growth.

Dan Thomas: 

[TITLE CARD: Dan Thomas, Co-Head of Markets, Well Fargo Corporate & Investment Banking]

Invesco's one of the most sophisticated financial firms in the world. It's got a broad and deep product set. It touches investors in all parts of the globe. And as we meet Invesco's needs as a client of Wells Fargo, that's really a good measure of the success we're having in building out our corporate investment bank. 

Andrew Schlossberg:

Wells Fargo does a great job of understanding Invesco. 

Andrew Schlossberg: 

Real estate's a really important investment asset class for the company, and Wells Fargo is one of the leaders. As a lender, service provider, not just across real estate equity, but also real estate debt, and not just here in the U.S., but globally.

Dan Thomas: We are one of the largest commercial real estate lenders to Invesco. We're one of the most significant providers of foreign exchange trading, and we also have an extensive relationship on the sales and trading side.

Dan Thomas: With two firms such as Invesco and Wells Fargo, you have to have deep relationships that extend across all products and services to make sure that you're capturing all the value for both sides.

Andrew Schlossberg: 

I wake up every day and my 8,500 colleagues do the same, knowing that we're managing assets for millions of individuals and that's a really noble cause. These are people’s retirement assets. They're funding education for their children or buying a home, and so being able to deliver for them is really rewarding.
