About the Program

Having learned through the recent crises about the limited payoffs and significant risks of excessive reliance on asset selection models, investment managers and institutional investors are showing unprecedented interest in asset allocation approaches as sources of performance. This seminar offers a unique opportunity to gain an in-depth appreciation of the concepts and techniques that will shape the future of investment management and will provide you with practical tools and novel investment approaches that will set you apart in this increasingly competitive market environment.

 

During this intensive seminar, participants will:

 

  • Learn to address estimation issues and model shortcomings to optimize portfolio construction in a world that does not conform to the tenets of modern portfolio theory
  • Explore enhanced index construction, optimal benchmarks, and efficient indices and hear research-based insights into the performance of Fundamental Index® strategies
  • Review the latest advances in asset−liability management and discover new cost-efficient approaches to inflation hedging
  • Gain insight into optimal risk budgeting techniques in the context of core–satellite investing
  • Examine dynamic risk management techniques and discover a new framework for blending active management and risk control
