KEY DISCUSSION TOPICS

Macro-Outlook & Asset Allocation: The Next 12 Months at a Glance


In a time of macroeconomic uncertainty, geopolitical conflict, higher interest
rates, chronic inflation, and market volatility, hear how strategists and
investors are viewing the next 12 months.



 



Private Debt in the U.S. Middle Market: A Source of Differentiated Returns





Private debt is a potential solution for institutional investors searching for
yield and low correlations with the public markets. This session will explore
the key differences between sponsor and non-sponsor focused direct lenders and
the questions that institutional investors should be asking themselves as they
consider allocating to this segment of the private debt market.








Emerging Markets in a Time of Profound Global Change

In a time of profound global change, how has investor sentiment changed towards
emerging markets? Which factors should long-term investors consider when
debating how and whether to allocate to the asset class? Which regions,
strategies and approaches will provide the best results for the objectives and
needs of institutional portfolios?

 

The Great Equity Debate:  Institutional Views on Stock Markets

Amidst slowing global growth, margin compression, and the challenging backdrop
of high inflation and rising interest rates, hear the different strategies
investors are using to determine their equity allocations and guide their
investments.

 

Recession, Rates, and the Role of Gold in Portfolios






After surging to $2070/oz in Q1 2022, the gold price has seen a period of
recalibration and consolidation, while still

outperforming global equities, bonds, and other alternatives. Looking ahead,
investors will likely continue to seek

gold to protect against economic uncertainty, tighter monetary policies to
control record inflation, and ongoing

geopolitical uncertainty. This discussion will focus on diversification risk
management attributes gold can deliver to

help navigate existing and emerging market challenges.





 

Fixed Income: Reassessing the Asset Class in Uncertain Times

Inflationary pressures and rising rates are causing investors to consider how
they are allocating to traditional fixed income. Are investors increasing their
risk tolerance? Where are risks being most compensated? What are the dominant
forces driving yield in the sub-asset classes?

 

Opportunities in Securitized Credit




Securitized credit provides more opportunities to achieve higher credit quality
while maintaining a yield advantage, as compared to those invested in government
or corporate credit-focused strategies. Panelists discuss how this strategy can
allow investors an opportunity to diversify credit risk by moving to an asset
class that has not been as distorted by capital flows driven by QE, and focuses
on collateral backed by consumer, housing, or real estate related assets.



 

The Importance of Process in Equity Factor Investing






Focus on the importance of using a properly designed investment process when
building equity factor portfolios. In particular, it will address the benefits
of using economically intuitive factors, large and varied data sets, and robust
model validation. This discussion is intended to provide asset owner with a
practical set of criteria that they can apply when evaluating providers of
equity factor strategies..


 

Institutional Leadership Roundtable: Decision-Making in Disruptive Times



Leading institutional investors and asset owners shed light on the most pressing
investment and management issues facing their organizations. Under Chatham House
Rules, they will vet tactics on global, social, market and environmental
disruptions within the current environment. They will discuss topics that are
strategically important to boards in today’s climate. They will explore how
global, social, market and environmental priorities have shifted. They will
debate reasonable expectations for investment returns this year, and relay how
they are streamlining governance practices. This is an opportunity to hear best
practices from institutional leadership, develop strategies to maximize
opportunities, and explore solutions for challenges to come.
