Events

In 2019 the overarching theme for our institutional domestic events is differentiation in a dislocating world. The premise of this theme is to guide the curation of our conferences so they are relevant to asset owner decision makers and provide different perspectives and insights – as distinct from noise.

We want our delegates to recognise that no matter how wise we all think we are, we each have cognitive biases and are subject to increasing noise. Differentiation is critical as we move towards a world that appears more dislocated, as de-globalisation continues and risk management receives greater focus.

We want to expose asset owners to ideas, themes and insights that challenge understanding and decision-making processes.
