“It is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest, that holds human association together” - H.L. Mencken's words stand true to its meaning in today's competitive market, and this sounds apt for anyone related to the financial sector. Trust is one of the key factors in maintaining a successful relationship with customers, especially when it comes to matters of money. However, this has been compromised drastically over the past years. While there is inflow and outflow of cash, what the customers mostly lack today is right advisory when it comes to managing finances, investments, portfolios or strategies. Deciding how to allocate the finances while maintaining the right balance between debt and equity is an extremely strenuous job for both organizations as well as individuals. The need of the hour is not just understanding customer needs and building-up customer relationships, but also developing clear and practical action plans that ensure real and sustainable growth for the customers in the long run.

Top 10 Chief Investment Officers - 2021
Managing and monitoring investments and making sure that investing in a particular scheme or business is profitable, yet cumbersome task. This is the role which a Chief Investment Officer (CIO) manages in an organization, where he overlooks the company's investments both within and outside the organization. CIO's role involves extremely business-sensitive responsibilities like supervising a team of portfolio managers, managing funds, managing & allocating assets, monitoring investments, developing short & long-term investment policies and maintaining investor relation, which requires specific set of skills.
The role of a CIO changes according to the sectors they work for. Corporate and hospital CIOs structure their portfolios primarily to manage risk. Corporate CIOs are liability-driven and have a financial mindset. However they have some commonalities. The ability to use both technical skills and soft skills is very important for this profession. Additionally, CIOs should be able to deal with a lot of moving parts, communicate with many people and should be able to explain complex financial concepts in layman terms. CIOs are expected to uphold the fiscal security of an organization even during hard times when revenues remain low for an extended period of time.
