Details

The world is defined by unprecedented levels of unpredictability. More than ever, defined benefit pension plans will have to be vigilant and agile in the face of evolving trends. With the unpredictable nature of a presidential election in the U.S. making its imprints in a few months, timing will prove essential for fund managers. At the same time, the ongoing role of inflation and a debate around the potential of a soft landing will mark how pensions approach risk.

Who Should Attend?
• The conference is an exclusive, educational forum that brings together senior decision-makers from Canadian pension plans, as well as representatives from the academic, custodial and money management communities.

How Do I Attend?
• Participation is by invitation only. This conference is complimentary for DB plan sponsors. For more information on the Global Investment Conference, please email Alison Webb, publisher of Canadian Investment Review for consideration.
