Managing Funding and Investment Forum 2008

Thursday 11 September 2008
Park Lane Hilton, London

Over the last 12 months, pension schemes’ funding and investment strategies have hit volatile times. Extensive changes in regulations have meant many pension schemes have seen deficits but needed to ensure liabilities can be met. Therefore trustees and consultants should do all they can to guarantee that members are presented with an appropriate range of investment options.

Key industry experts took an in-depth look at effective ways to integrate funding and investment strategies and also gave delegates the opportunity to:

• Define the benefits of pension risk transfer.
• Question the threats and opportunities of the credit crunch.
• Understand global equities and bonds.
• Identify money markets and how to deliver exceptional returns.
• Examine pension scheme risk.
• Question the leading minds in the industry.
• Build valuable relationships with peers and experts alike.
