Now in its 3rd year, the Canadian Fixed Income in Pensions Forum is the only event in Canada that is driven by leading institutional investors, addressing how pension funds generate yields and manage risks within their fixed income portfolio at the intersection of geopolitical uncertainty and forecasted economic growth.

What will be the impact of volatile oil prices and central bank policies as well as political and economic turbulence around the world on corporate and government issuers? What excites investors and how are pension funds reacting? For investors who seek global diversification, additional risks as well as many opportunities exist. Join your peers from pension funds and market leaders for one day of contents and networking, which will enable you to strategize with your current portfolio.
