GAIM International is the world’s largest and longest running alternative investment and hedge fund conference. Last year GAIM International brought together 900+ of the top fund managers and asset allocators to discuss the most important trends impacting hedge funds, including:
Over 300 Investors (including institutional investors, private bankers, high net worth individuals, family offices and sovereign wealth funds)
Over 500 Star Fund Managers (including big brands & boutique investment houses from across the globe)
It provides unparelled networking opportunities, the latest academic research on the alternatives world, the wise words of industry sages and the fresh perspectives of the rising stars. The 2011 Agenda answers 4 huge industry questions. Here is how…
• What Does The Investor Want?
We have a special Manager Selection & Asset Allocation Summit day on Monday the 20th June dedicated to connecting forward thinking investors and managers. Don’t miss the chance to hear from and meet with many top end investors including PGGM Investments, The California Endowment, The Teacher’s Retirement System Of Texas!
• Economic Analysis - Where is the Smart Money Going?
Acclaimed economist Dr Linda Yueh of Oxford University will be giving a guest address on how global geopolitics will reshape our world plus we have a dynamic bull/bear debate which challenges top market strategists such as Gavyn Davies of Fulcrum Asset Management and Jens Nystedt of Moore Capital to declare whether they are bullish or bearish as a result of recent market upheavals. In addition, Hedge Funds will go head to head with Private Equity in the GAIM International debate- who will triumph- Jon Moulton of Better Capital representing private equity or Hugh Hendry of Eclectica Asset Manager championing hedge funds?!
• The Hedge Fund Business- How Are We Getting Back Into Growth Mode?
Hear new research from Casey Quirk on how changing business practices are reshaping the industry and benefit from the expertise of top managers (O.S.S. Capital, Centaurus Capital and Armajaro) to discover the new products, new business models and new resources the hedge fund industry needs to take advantage of.
• What Is The Hedge Fund Of The Future - UCITS Vs Managed Accounts Vs Traditional Off Shore?
Benefit from a regulatory update from AIMA and take part in two important working groups- one on Managed Accounts (how do we move from theory to practice?) and one on UCITS (Is UCITS really the answer?).
Plus! We have fantastic investment strategy panels (experts will be discussing the latest developments in Global Macro, CTAs, Emerging Markets, Credit, Energy, Distressed Debt, Private Equity & Commodities), Investors discussions (hear family office, private bank and end investor focussed discussions) and the brand new Coffee House Discussion Sessions- grab a cup of posh coffee and debate with your peers on the big issues impacting us today
