The Zacks Investment Management industry is contending with increasing technology and AI expenses, along with a shift towards low-cost passive products, which pressures profitability and margins. Despite these challenges, firms like Ameriprise Financial, SEI Investments Co., and Federated Hermes, Inc. are well-positioned for growth due to rising assets under management (AUM) and strategic initiatives like product innovation and M&As. The industry currently holds a Zacks Industry Rank #137, indicating near-term underperformance, but Zacks highlights these three companies as potential long-term investments.
