Meet the Managers Christchurch

Due to travel restrictions, we’ve adopted a unique approach with this Meet the Managers aimed at updating you on the investment environment and how experts are responding to its risks and opportunities. Our aim is to enable you to generate predictable outcomes for your client’s portfolios, whilst staying focused on some long-term investment trends.

To assist, we have invited a wide variety of Presenters to discuss their approach to portfolio construction and investing, to assist in understanding how this can provide additional value for your clients. We have also added a section on the Learning Outcomes to assist with completion of your annual CPD planner .

THEME : SAIL AWAY

The final weeks of the 36th Americas Cup are analogous to the industry that we work within. Kiwi Magic’s first challenge for the Cup in 1986 occurred at a time when financial markets were euphoric about the NZX50 nearing 4,000, and the S&P500 at a lofty 236.

Despite the upsets over the next few years, Black Magic went on to win in 1995 with the NZX50 recovering back to 2,400 and the S&P500 nearing 553. As the wind continued on our shoulders through 2,000, Team New Zealand successfully defended the Cup – with the NZX50 passing through 1,900, and the S&P500 at 1,322.

Today the NZX50 is over 13,000 and the S&P500 at 3,860. Will Team New Zealand continue to lead the way, or will the might of the US deliver the results once again? This rapid line up of Presenters will discuss the wind shifts ahead for markets, and how to ensure that your client’s portfolio is positioned for smooth sailing.

With so much to discuss, this is the Speed Dating event for investment professionals to attend, and we look forward to seeing you at one of the venues in March.
