The Clashes of Asset Management

Ten years of bull markets and sustained economic growth – despite geopolitical contention – offer CIOs and investment consultants the opportunity to debate and reflect on the paradigms on the business of institutional asset management.

The Roundtable for Consultants & Institutional Investors will focus on the clashes of asset management, the pivotal arguments to be had on asset classes, approaches, risks, rewards, and the future of the industry.

In keeping with a key theme of U.S. midterm elections, the Roundtable aims to prepare you for change, on the investment and political stages.
