Wrap Accounts- next stop UK
Datamonitor, Dec 2003, Pages: 111
Introduction
Datamonitor’s report provides a unique and extensive insight into the market for wrap services in the UK. Based on 20 face-to-face interviews with wrap platform managers and potential market entrants, the report examines leading industry opinion in the UK. The analysis covers the provision of wrap services through IFAs and the benefits that they can provide for investors.
Scope
The report pins down a definition of wrap services, examines the history of wrap products and looks at the potential for wrap services in the UK.
The report looks at the benefits of wrap services from the end-users perspective – namely the IFA and the investor.
The report looks at the barriers to entry for would-be wrap platform providers and examines the potential platform providers and partnerships.
The report looks at the wrap market over the next five years and the implications for those involved, it goes on to size the market to 2008.
Report Highlights
A full wrap incorporates five key elements; all available tax regimes, full depth of allowable assets, full suite of financial tools, online availability and a single transparent price. Separately managed accounts and fund supermarkets do not meet the definition of a full wrap service.
Key determinants of the success of wraps in the UK will be proposed regulatory changes such as those contained within the Sandler report, the Government’s green paper and the FSA’s depolarization papers. These all propose changes that would compliment the development of wrap services.
Provided the Sandler recommendations, the Government’s Green Paper and the FSA’s depolarization come in to effect in or around 2005, the wrap market in the UK should reach more than GBP100bn by 2008. This growth will be significantly boosted by the development of 'full wrap' services.
