The 10th Anniversary of the Investment Forum is packed with thought-leadership insights

The 2020 Investment Forum, now in its 10th anniversary, promises to offer delegates the opportunity to listen and debate the views of various investment professionals on the state of domestic and international financial markets and investment return expectations for 2020.

The conference will be held in Cape Town (Century City Convention Centre) on the 16th/17th March.

There are many new innovations being brought into the 2020 conference, some of these include:

1. A New CEO Forum – This Forum will be hosted by Kevin Lings from Stanlib and will feature a range of JSE-listed CEO’s who will share their views on what their businesses are doing to grow and increase earnings during stagnant economic times. CEO’s that will be participating on this panel include Mike Brown (Nedbank), Richard Brasher (Pick n Pay), Dr Chris van der Merwe (Curro Holdings) and Dr Leila Fourie (JSE).
    
2. New Breakaway Workstreams – Attendees can select from a range of various workstreams that they would like to participate in based on their individual needs and requirements. These include multi-assets, equity building blocks, fixed income and property, new investment ideas, industry trends reshaping financial advice, rules-based investing, alternative investments strategies and real assets, Asia/China insights and discretionary fund management.

We all know that financial markets have been volatile and unpredictable and investment returns have been illusive in the past five years. The 2020 Investment Forum is undoubtedly the leading conference where investment scenarios are rigorously debated by a diverse range of industry experts. This therefore allows financial advisers to sift through a variety of investment views, thus providing a balanced perspective to manage their clients’ portfolios with this in mind.

The event is supported by 25 of the leading domestic and international investment management companies, where 43 investment professionals will be participating including 7 Chief Investment Officers and 2 economists. Furthermore, the 2020 event also has the highest number of female investment professionals in attendance ever and who are coming from all financial centres around the world (New York, London and Singapore).

In 2019, the event was completely over-subscribed and sold out way in advance of the date. So, be sure to register soon if you want to secure your seat to South Africa’s premier investment management industry conference and secure your CPD points in so doing.
