Following the financial crisis in 2008, the quality of outsourced relationships in the institutional investment arena was tested.
There were many lessons to be learned on how service providers might better anticipate changing client demands in an extremely dynamic environment. “Trust” is a key ingredient in retaining a client relationship and it requires continuous attention and monitoring. Based on leading academic research and empirical evidence in working with its own clients in selecting and evaluating outsourced service providers for institutional investors, Avida International has developed a bespoke approach to monitor and actively manage client relationships in time.
The approach involves four main drivers:
For each of these factors, Avida International has developed a bespoke approach to objectively measure in time and compare against peers. This involved input from investment and governance professionals, as well as from experts in the area of behavioural finance and psychology.
Avida professionals support you in monitoring by conducting interviews with your clients.

Client retention requires continuous monitoring in order to pro-actively anticipate potential customer specific areas of dissatisfaction. Indeed, its value is often overlooked as a means of identifying new business opportunities.
The Avida International Client Retention Management (AICRM) tool has been developed to help service providers independently check the temperature of their customer relationships. It uses client feedback to score the absolute performance of your organisation under a number of key headings. In addition, your organisation enjoys the additional benefit of being able to ascertain where it stands against industry peers, thanks to the quality of Avida International's existing database.
Our clients are often surprised and always delighted at the client insights AICRM generates. Our survey methodology, managed by very experienced former industry practitioners, regularly helps bridge the communication gap that can sometimes develop between client and service provider. This is never more valuable than when it helps identify new areas for both parties to work together for their mutual benefit.
For each category in the scorecard we provide a ranking against peers, in order to indicate relative gaps and areas for improvement.

The Avida International advisors have a deep understanding of customer demands and are available to support client-facing staff at investment service providers to improve their effectiveness.
This involves, for example, on-the-job preparations for investments committees and board meetings, and group coaching sessions.
All too often investment professionals are content-driven, focussing on their presentations instead of truly engaging with their clients. The training focuses on bad weather scenarios and building trust when things are going well.
We offer two types of consulting services:
After an in-depth review of our product offering for the Netherlands, Avida made a number of good suggestions to further improve our positioning for institutional clients.
