What Changed
Risk factors · Nov 12, 2024 → Nov 10, 202514 added · 14 removed between the two most recent 10-Ks. The risks a company starts — or stops — disclosing are often the story.
Newly disclosed
- For example, AI technologies, including generative AI, may create content that appears correct but is factually inaccurate or flawed.
- A breach, suspension or termination of these services or related support, upgrades and maintenance could cause system delays or interruption, and/or unauthorized access to confidential or private data, that could adversely impact our business, including financial losses to us and our clients, legal and regulatory issues, and reputational harm.
- Failure to successfully integrate AI technologies, respond to client or market demands, identify or address applicable legal or regulatory issues or effectively manage related risks could result in legal and regulatory liabilities and harm our reputation and growth.
- The use of AI offers efficiencies, but also introduces significant challenges related to data security, privacy, intellectual property, regulatory compliance, accuracy and bias concerns, and reputational harm, among others.
- Globally, courts and regulatory agencies are developing approaches to dealing with AI-related issues, which creates uncertainty around the use of the technology.
- Developing regulatory treatment of AI, and failure to adequately address AI-related challenges, creates a risk of reputational harm and an impediment to growth.
- Use of AI technologies requires ongoing operational controls and procedures, and the development and implementation of appropriate protections and safeguards.
- AI technologies evolve at a rapid pace and their usage requires integration with other technology applications, data platforms and business processes.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in many areas of our business and we plan to further incorporate AI into additional areas.
- Any inability to access and successfully sell our products to clients through such third-party channels could have a negative effect on our level of AUM and adversely impact our business. 20 Table of Contents Moreover, we can provide no assurance that we will continue to have access to the third-party financial intermediaries that currently distribute our products, or that we will continue to have the opportunity to offer all or some of our existing products through them.
- In addition, due to the global nature of our business, our key personnel may, from time to time, have reasons to travel to regions susceptible to higher risk of civil unrest, organized crime or terrorism, and we may be unable to ensure the safety of our personnel traveling to such regions.
- In addition, reputational harm may prevent us from attracting new clients or developing new business, and any inability to meet applicable client, regulatory or other requirements may adversely impact our reputation and business.
No longer disclosed
- A breach, suspension or termination of these services or related support, upgrades and maintenance could cause temporary system delays or interruption that could adversely impact our business.
- Moreover, ESG topics and activities have been the subject of increased focus by certain investors and regulators in the asset management industry, and any inability to meet applicable requirements may adversely impact our reputation and business.
- Moreover, we can provide no assurance that we will continue to have access to the third-party financial intermediaries that currently distribute our products, or that we will continue to have the opportunity to offer all or some of our existing products through them.
- In addition, due to the global nature of our business, our key personnel may, from time to time, have reasons to travel to regions susceptible to higher risk of civil unrest, organized crime or terrorism, and we may be unable to ensure the safety of our personnel traveling to such regions. 23 Table of Contents CASH MANAGEMENT RISKS Our ability to meet cash needs depends upon certain factors, including the market value of our assets, our operating cash flows and our perceived creditworthiness.
- These include financial risks arising from changes in the valuation of financial instruments linked to benchmark indices, pricing and operational risks, and legal implementation and revised documentation.
- Although we have in place certain disaster recovery plans, we may experience system delays and interruptions as a result of natural disasters, power failures, acts of war, and third-party failures.
- Any inability to access and successfully sell our products to clients through such third-party channels could have a negative effect on our level of AUM and adversely impact our business.
- COMPETITION AND DISTRIBUTION RISKS Failure to properly address the increased transformative pressures affecting the asset management industry could negatively impact our business.
- Changes in tax laws or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could have a material impact on our financial condition, revenues and income.
- The replacement of benchmark indices may impose a number of risks on our business, our clients and the financial services industry more widely.
- In addition, reputational harm may prevent us from attracting new clients or developing new business.
- Related services include fund administration, sales and distribution, and shareholder servicing.
