Institutional investors are currently grappling with a challenging global investment landscape, as macroeconomic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions continue to exert influence on market conditions. The US federal funds rate has reached unprecedented levels and despite a recent pause in rate hikes, the probability of policy easing in the near future remains low. Meanwhile, Asian markets offer enticing prospects to investors due to their growth potential and comparatively lower inflation data. Against this backdrop, institutional investors are actively exploring fresh investment opportunities and strategies that can deliver consistent returns while effectively managing risk and aligning with social and sustainability values.
Now in its 13th edition, the flagship conference will bring together asset owners and industry professionals from Southeast Asia and beyond the region for a day of high-level networking and in-depth discussions on the current investment environment. Key topics include:
What are the primary takeaways for institutional investors from the year 2023, and what are the key considerations when formulating plans for 2024?
• How are investors proactively preparing for various scenarios of economic downturn?
• How do asset owners plan to approach alternative investments such as private equity and private credit in the coming year?
• What recent ESG trends have emerged from global events, and how do investors integrate them into their strategies?
• How are investors contributing to a just transition towards net-zero?
