The investment challenges facing pension schemes have rarely been more interconnected.
Climate change continues to reshape long-term investment thinking. Meanwhile, geopolitical tensions, shifting trade relationships, technological disruption, inflationary pressures and changing social expectations are creating new uncertainties for investors to navigate.
For trustees and sponsors, the question is increasingly not what happens next? but how prepared are we for a range of possible outcomes?
On the 1st October we’ll share our latest thinking on investment resilience and discuss how schemes can build portfolios that are designed not to predict the future, but to respond successfully to it.
12:30 to 17:00pm, DAY, 01 October at One America Square in the City of London. Spaces are limited.
