Modern Management: Technology is Expected to Play a Pivotal Role in Operators' Future Performance

Several major companies have also merged, such as Tilney Group and Smith & Williamson, in September 2020, creating one of the largest financial adviser companies in the UK. As a result of consolidation, the industry's level of market share concentration has ballooned.
