Chief Investment Officers Symposium 2020 | CII (Centre for Institutional Investors) | 18 February 2020 | Sheraton Melbourne Hotel, 27 Little Collins St, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia

The Chief Investment Officers Symposium gives our industry’s key investment decision makers and leaders the opportunity to come together with peers and global investment experts to share and discuss their macroeconomic and strategic views, openly and candidly.

Investors face an unprecedented economic backdrop through which they are navigating their portfolios and making capital allocation decisions. This Symposium will give participants the opportunity to share the approaches they have taken to managing investments, their relative successes and failures, the lessons learned and how those experiences have led them to evolve their investment approach for the future.

Topics to be covered include:

• Investing late in the cycle: remaining invested while protecting portfolios from downside risks
• Building diversified portfolios to withstand divergence across markets and asset classes
• Innovation in risk and the development of the investment team’s risk culture, risk measures and tolerance
• Influencing culture and developing frameworks to attain high performance through rapid growth and change
• Assessing new investment approaches and strategies that drive returns
