Bouncing Back:
How COVID-19 is Advancing Alternative Fund Operations

BNY Mellon examines operational change in the alternative asset management industry during a pandemic and how the working environment could change post COVID-19.




During the course of 2020, the alternative asset management industry, in common with businesses across the world, has had to manage a different set of priorities. The pandemic, and its resultant lockdowns, forced fund managers to rapidly pivot and find ways to continue operating in a remote working environment.

Our two-part report explores operational and business considerations for alternative asset managers in this new normal, including:
  • Resiliency and the switch to remote working
  • Staying connected to employees and maintaining a culture
  • Virtual capital raising, due diligence and investor communications
  • Acceleration of digital technology adoption
  • New ways of operating and diversifying talent
