Agenda

2:00 - 2:15 / WELCOME REMARKS

2:15 - 3:00 / HEDGE FUNDS Panel

In an era where passive investment returns may no longer be reliable, what role can hedge funds play? How has the opportunity set for hedge funds evolved since the end of Quantitative Easing?

3:00 - 3:45 / REAL ASSETS Panel

A sector some may have overlooked in the past has re-emerged. What are the possible benefits of real asset and commodity investments within a portfolio, in light of persistent inflation and volatility of traditional asset classes? What are options in terms of implementation?

3:45 - 4:30 / VENTURE CAPITAL Panel

As a result of shifting trends in remote work, sustainability, consumer behavior, and the emergence of unproven AI technologies, due diligence in early stage companies may be more important than ever. Where do the opportunities exist for today's VC investments, and how should investors evaluate them?

4:30 - 5:15 / PRIVATE Equity Panel

As liquidity demand continues to grow and new deal-flow stagnates, how should investors think of the role of Private Equity today, and what should expectations be in term of the illiquidity premium?
