About

Institutional Investment Insights is an in-person event brought to you by The Collaborative Exchange, - SA’s leading advisory, research and events management company in the investment industry. 

This conference is specifically designed for senior pension CIOs, asset/liability specialists, DFM’s, multi managers, family offices and trustees. 

Under the theme The Big Reset: Managing pension fund assets in a dysfunctional world, the event content focuses on the strategies and frameworks needed to navigate today’s fractured markets and rebuild resilient pension fund portfolios. 

The conference will consist of various keynote presentations by local and international experts and panel discussions, where practitioners will rigorously debate approaches to rebooting risk frameworks, engineering liability-driven portfolio modules and unlocking alternative sources of alpha.

The core objectives of The Big Reset are fourfold:

1. To help you recalibrate risk frameworks with advanced scenario modelling
2. To gain deep insights into the world of evolving alternative assets and how they can be included in pension funds
3. Glean the latest insights on fixed income assets, local and global equities, hedge funds and digital assets and how these are evolving in this dysfunctional world
4. To provide delegates with a broad framework to rethink the opportunities that exist in this dysfunctional market

The near-term path of global economies and markets is highly uncertain, but there are some attractive longer term investment opportunities where a reasonable margin of safety currently exists. 

The old ‘time in the market, not timing’ argument is flawed on many levels, but with some extreme valuation anomalies present in today’s markets, being willing to stay exposed to attractively valued investments should prove rewarding in the long-term. 

Ample networking breaks are woven throughout the programme, ensuring you connect directly with speakers and industry peers.
