SUMMARY:Seminar for Heads of Sovereign Asset Management
DESCRIPTION:Background\nThe global investment environment has been turbulent in the post covid-19 recovery period given the high inflation, market volatility and geopolitics among others. Given the prolonged Russia/Ukraine war and the Israel/Gaza conflict, and the global trade tensions, the outlook for the global economy remains uncertain. Sovereign asset managers are concerned about the impact of these risks on the asset allocation to achieve the trilogy of objectives: capital preservation, access to liquid markets, and a positive return. At the same time, policymakers continue to grapple with policy challenges in a broader context that includes emerging themes such as climate change, sustainable investing, and rapid changes in technology. The need to mitigate the risks posed by the challenges in the global markets warrants a multi-pronged strategy which includes diversifying into new asset classes and keeping abreast and adopting international best practices by sovereign asset managers.\nThe seminar is expected to provide insights on the global financial market investment environment, the resulting challenges faced by policy makers such as geopolitical risk, and the global economic outlook. Other topics may include current trends in reserves management with regards to climate risk and artificial intelligence and diversification into new/emerging asset classes. The seminar also provides a platform for networking, exchanging of ideas amongst delegates and industry experts.\nObjectives\n\n\nTo explore the challenges posed by the current developments in the global investment environment and the impact on the asset allocation.\n\n\nTo enhance understanding of solutions to the current challenges.\n\n\nTo discuss the current themes in sovereign asset management such as climate risk, sustainable investing and artificial intelligence in sovereign asset management.\n\n\nTo discuss avenues of return enhancement and diversification into new/emerging asset classes.\n\n\nTarget Group\nHeads of central bank reserves management, public pension funds, deposit and investor protection funds, and sovereign wealth funds who aim to have a better understanding of the topics.\n
