2018 Has thus far been a year of volatility, so knowing how to maintain a targeted level of absolute returns is challenging.

In this Webinar, leading experts will discuss which asset classes are attractive, what role alternative investment techniques lay in the management of multi-asset portfolios. They will also share ways they identify where volatility will come from, and the macro movements (elections, regulations) that will affect the market in the next 6 months.

“Multi-asset” and “Solutions” have been some of the industry’s biggest buzzwords over the last few years, and for good reason: multi-asset vehicles have generated record sales and clients around the world continue to challenge their providers - both asset and wealth managers - to offer solutions to their problems rather than simply push products.

In this panel discussion, we will dissect what’s driving the recent growth in multi-asset products and what the future holds given the many challenges facing the industry

This webinar will cover topics such as:
* What are the key innovations in the multi-asset arena currently and in the future?
* How can asset and wealth managers partner to ensure clients are receiving the best possible outcomes?
* What role does passive play in the multi-asset arena? Alternatives?
* How do wealth managers evaluate asset managers’ multi-asset products, and what are their unmet needs?

After this webinar, listeners will leave with solid ideas, tactics, and a vision on how to optimize their multi-asset strategy to meet client needs, be on the cutting edge of innovation, and protect and grow their assets and overall business.

Amid the recent market turbulence, how can investment managers focus on the most important job of responsibly managing the wealth entrusted to their care and avoid being swayed by economic forecasts and market volatility?

This webinar takes a closer look at what investment managers can realistically and confidently take a view on, such as;

* the extent to which events can change the valuation of assets
* the relative attractions of the myriad asset classes available to multi-asset investors
* the likelihood of achieving decent returns from those assets in the context of the market cycle.

The popularity of alternative risk premia (ARP) is growing and strategies that focus on ARP are increasingly being incorporated into portfolios. The attraction of this approach is that ARP can mimic strategies that have historically only been available through hedge fund vehicles, but with more favourable liquidity and cost characteristics, whilst retaining a low correlation to traditional equities and bonds.
