Day Two wrap
Managing director of China Investment Corporation, Hua Fan, and quantitative portfolio manager at CalPERS, Ho Ho, were among the highlights of day two at the Fiduciary Investors Symposium in Beijing.
As artificial intelligence models become more sophisticated, asset owners and managers are rethinking portfolio construction as an activity sitting at the nexus of human and machine, which means gaining an edge over the market increasingly needs investors to tap into the wisdom from both sources.
The global economy is increasingly bifurcated between the US, Europe and Asia and how the growth projections and geopolitical risks between these regions plays out is of increasing interest to institutional investors. The Fiduciary Investors Symposium in Singapore will look at the return and impact opportunities in the region, and the importance of Asia in the global economy.
It will examine the global economy in the context of the west adapting to a rising Asia; technology decoupling between the US and China; the impact of COVID-19 on Asian economies; the leading role of Asia in technology, smart cities, digitalisation and fintech; ESG risks and opportunities; and portfolio resilience to different macro-economic regimes.
The conference enables asset owners from around the world to explore investment themes, risks and opportunities with their global peers, and explore cutting edge approaches to risk management, liquidity management and portfolio construction.
