The transition to omnibus accounts has changed the mix of accounts—direct, networked, or in omnibus positions—held at mutual fund transfer agents. This transition raises many issues, including:
- The operational, servicing, and compliance impacts for direct customers and intermediaries associated with accounts held direct; for accounts held in omnibus positions; and for orphan accounts
- How customer segments are identified and managed
- What the future holds for networked accounts
- Whether existing products, share classes, and fund policies work well in an environment in which there are multiple recordkeepers: the fund transfer agent as well as the many subaccounting relationships
