SUMMARY:Seminar for Heads of Sovereign Asset Management
DESCRIPTION:Background\nThe global investment environment has been turbulent in the post-COVID-19 recovery period, characterized by high inflation, market volatility, and geopolitical tensions, among others. The prolonged Russia-Ukraine war and the Israel-Gaza conflict further exacerbate uncertainty in the global economic outlook.\nSovereign asset managers are grappling with the impact of these risks on their ability to achieve the critical trilogy of objectives: capital preservation, liquidity, and positive returns. Simultaneously, policymakers are navigating a complex landscape with emerging themes such as climate change, sustainable investing, and rapid technological advancements.\nThe need to mitigate the risks posed by these global market challenges necessitates a multi-pronged strategy. This includes diversifying into new asset classes and actively adopting international best practices within the sovereign asset management framework.\nObjectives\n\nTo explore the challenges posed by the current developments in the global investment environment and their impact on asset allocation.\nTo enhance understanding of mitigation strategies for these challenges.\nTo discuss current themes in sovereign asset management, such as Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing, sustainable finance, and harnessing the power of Fintech in sovereign asset management.\nTo explore avenues for return enhancement and diversification into new and emerging asset classes.\n\nTarget Group\nThis seminar targets Heads of Central Bank reserves, public pension funds, deposit and investor protection funds, and sovereign wealth funds who aim to gain a deeper understanding of these critical topics.\n
