Consensus: Invest 2019 | CoinDesk | 12 November 2019 | New York Marriott Marquis, 1535 Broadway New York, NY 10036, USA

Invest: NYC is an annual forum focused on delivering discussions on the trends and investment opportunities for cryptoassets, the fastest-growing alternative investments in history. Invest brings together global investors across asset management, commercial banks, hedge funds, pension funds, mutual funds, insurance companies and service providers, all with unique perspectives and experiences to underline the current sophistication of digital securities and commodities.

The Intersection of Macroeconomics & Crypto
In 2019, Invest: NYC will focus on the intersection of macroeconomics and crypto. Recent trends and macroeconomic developments have focused global interest on the potential role of crypto assets in a portfolio. Are crypto assets an attractive hedge that can help achieve outperformance, or is now the time to reduce risk exposure?

Economists, fund managers and investment experts will debate these themes and more, as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies find their way onto the global stage.

Panelists will also discuss the state of crypto market infrastructure, the progress over the past year, the barriers yet to overcome and the developments in the pipeline that will add a layer of sophistication and reliability to an emerging market.
