- • Next Generation – the client, the workforce, the skills and technology requirements
- • The rise of the Metaverse, and what it means for Investment Management
- • The growing role of Tokenisation, and the pathway to a DLT-native fund space
Event Programme
Join us for a pre-event session that brings together physical audiences from the UK and Singapore into one panel. Hear the latest on innovation in investment management from the Investment Management Association of Singapore (IMAS)
In the face of turbulent market conditions, the need for investment managers to create efficiencies and improve client engagement has become more critical than ever. In this masterclass, we seek to help participants understand new innovations and access cutting edge technology in order to unlock new opportunities and chart the path of future growth in investment management.
This masterclass will explore the growing role of tokenisation and the pathway to a DLT-native fund space. Thought leaders will also share perspectives on the next generation of artificial intelligence, the impact of ChatGPT and how we can best harness developments in AI to create fresh opportunities for investment management.
