Description
EBI 2018 is a part of the Global Indexing & ETFs conference.
New for 2018:
EBI 2018 will feature in-depth practice management and organizational content, geared toward professionals who not only want to keep up with the latest trends in markets and products, but also with the changing environment for growing and scaling a firm.
This June 24-26, EBI 2018 returns to the West Coast at the fabulous Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, California. The event will once again bring together institutional investors, financial advisors, asset managers, index providers, ETF issuers, technology experts and industry thought leaders looking to improve their investment decision-making process.
The program will build on the success of our 2017 gatherings, which featured impressive speaker rosters, including such industry luminaries as Cliff Asness (AQR), Tim Buckley (Vanguard), Jim Ross (SSGA), Liz Ann Sonders (Charles Schwab), Jeffrey Gundlach (DoubleLine), Michael Mauboussin (Credit Suisse), Eduardo Repetto (Dimensional Fund Advisors), Rob Arnott (Research Affiliates), Jason Zweig (The Wall Street Journal), and Meir Statman (Santa Clara University).
The idea of investing in an evidence-based way is increasingly popular, as strategies based on data take precedence over the old intuition-based methods of the prior generation. The trend increasingly appears to be a secular, rather than a cyclical one, as organizations and institutions rethink all aspects of their processes and philosophies. By incorporating more reason and less guesswork, money managers and investment advisors are able to paint a more realistic picture of future outcomes and potential challenges to their investors.
