IPE’s first equities focused conference targets an audience of senior investment leaders at pension plans in Europe and beyond. Demographics andregulation may have required pension investors to dial back on their equity exposures overall, but equities remain a key return driver and source of diversification for funds and their beneficiaries. As well as rethinking the balance of equities in their portfolio overall, pension investors have also been retooling the shape of that exposure, rightly questioning the role of traditional active, quant, smart beta and passive strategies altogether and how to combine them to the optimum. Our conference will skillfully draw together the complex strands of these closely interrelated topics, with a top-class bench of international speakers.
