Opal run a number of top conferences for US Public Pension Funds, including this one in Arizona. Opal Financial Group’s Public Funds Summit returns in 2016, with a continued focus on education and providing a forum for delegates, money managers and consultants to exchange ideas and learn from each other. The three-day conference will address the key issues facing today’s investment industry, as well as ethic regulations, legal issues facing pension plans and the importance of on-going education for plan sponsors and their fiduciaries. The event will consist entirely of panel discussions led by consultants and family offices, facilitating interactive, dialogue-driven sessions. Discussions will focus on topics including U.S pensions, developments in investment strategy, fund allocation, DB versus DC plans, management of risk, equity investing, hedge funds, venture capital, real assets, real estate, and emerging and frontier markets.
