AIMA Next Generation Manager Forum 2021 | The Alternative Investment Management Association Limited | 9 March 2021 | Virtual Event

Now in its eighth year, the Forum provides a platform for the exchange of ideas and the development of peer networking for senior individuals at alternative asset management businesses managing less than $500m in assets. These firms are an integral part of the alternative investment management community and are important and substantial contributors to AIMA’s work.

We are pleased to welcome over 250 delegates each year to join the discussions elaborating on some of the key discussion points of this group and during sessions, speakers explore the nuts and bolts of this dynamic market and how to build a successful alternative investment business. Past themes included how to best manage the firm’s operations, navigating the key compliance issues into 2020, and a discussion on how to manage capital raising for your business.

The 2021 Forum will take place in a virtual format and will explore the relationship between the fund managers and their prime brokers, what investors expect to see from their fund manager, the characterisation of budgets and the use of platforms.
