31st Annual European Pensions Symposium

The New Investment Environment, One Year In

Now in its thirty first year, Institutional Investor’s European Pensions Symposium continues to be the flagship event for the industry, convening the key decision makers to discuss the issues of the day. The last year has been a period of immense economic change and uncertainty in Europe. A year since Russia invaded Ukraine, the energy crisis, runaway inflation, and high interest rates have come to define a turbulent economic landscape. This year’s symposium will allow a moment to reflect on how European asset owners and their managers are approaching this new economic environment, one year on. What has the investment community learnt so far and what further change can they expect to come?

This well-established meeting has historically convened up to 80 European pension and insurance fund executives for a three-day programme of interactive workshops, panel sessions, guest speakers and social activities. The meeting will offer a unique, off-the-record setting for attendees to share innovative ideas and best practice among European institutional asset owners and managers.

This is an invitation-only event and all discussions are held under Chatham House Rule to enable a candid exchange of opinions. The event is free of charge for qualified investors with partnership opportunities available for asset managers.
