Hedge Fund Exchange Listed Conferences

Every year hundreds of Hedge fund conferences are organized all over the world. For hedge fund industry participants, managers, administrators, hedge fund investors, and the general public, such industry-targeted events have become an inevitable technology and knowledge repertoire Since regulatory requirements forbids hedge funds from public advertising, hedgefund conferences offer a one stop shop where hedge fund providers, hedge fund industry service providers, and the industry at large can meet to discuss important issues impacting the industry. Hedge fund related services, products and technological dimensions are all exhibited.  If your company, organization or association is sponsoring a hedge fund event or conference, or any other event targeting the global hedge industry participants, Hedgefundexchange.net will list your event here with a link to your website or the event organizers for a modest fee.

Brochure        Instructors        Contents        Online Registration   Jointly organised by CFA Institute and the EDHEC Risk and Asset Management Research Centre, the Annual Advances in Asset Allocation Seminar takes stock of the latest research advances in asset allocation and clarifies the distinction between true innovation and mere marketing claims in emerging industry trends. The first day of the seminar focuses on bridging the gap between portfolio theory and portfolio construction. It discusses new investment paradigms and presents solutions to address estimation issues and for incorporating active views in a Bayesian framework. The second day of the seminar explains how to optimise portfolio construction in a non-Markowitz world. It addresses the limitations of portfolio theory, imparts research-based insights on fundamental index® strategies and novel forms of indices and benchmarks, and presents models that integrate non-normality risks, parameter uncertainty, and realistic preferences. Finally, it shows how to integrate risk management constraints into asset allocation and move from static to dynamic beta management. The seminar’s final day covers advanced risk budgeting and dynamic core-satellite allocation. It looks at portable alpha and portable beta strategies and shows how to use dynamic core-satellite investing to achieve dissymmetric management of the risk budget and to design long-only absolute return funds and new LDI products. It concludes with a review of the place of alternative investments in ALM as diversification, substitution and inflation hedging vehicles. This exclusive seminar features instructors with established reputations for bringing together academic expertise and industry experience. Presented in a highly accessible manner, it provides participants with an in-depth appreciation of the concepts and techniques that will shape the future of investment management and equips them with practical tools to improve asset allocation processes, implement novel investment management approaches, and develop new products.
