Currency matters. Reducing portfolio risk, and improving portfolio returns, by managing “uncompensated” risk
Globally invested pension funds typically see between 20% and 40% of their annual risk “budget” being consumed by foreign exchange exposure risk. And yet, as investors, we have been trained to believe that currency “does not matter”. Using case studies, and current market views, we will explore the significant impact of Foreign Exchange risk on overseas investments over the last 20 years, and identify methods to transform this risk into potential profit opportunities that can be used to improve cash flow, and pay pensions.

Cash Flow Driven Investing – Different Flavours
Pension schemes around the world are distributing an increasing amount to their members as they age and retire. By matching cash outflows with natural investment inflows, schemes could avoid selling assets when markets are depressed, while still providing upside growth potential from investing in fixed income markets. This is one of the reasons why cashflow driven investment (CDI) strategies have garnered significant interest from institutional investors in recent years.
Join us as we discuss how different clients with different cashflow and sustainability requirements have achieved their objectives by adopting a CDI approach and answer your questions.

Cost
The conference is by invitation only for pension funds and other institutional investors and we welcome new attendees from these investors. Therefore if you are not already receiving an invitation please contact us. A limited number of Complimentary invitations are available to genuine pension fund representatives (executives and trustees) and other approved institutional investors. However, to ensure we have room for as many funds as possible, we have to limit free places to 3 attendees per approved organisation thereafter a reduced rate fee is payable per delegate. Furthermore, SPS always reserves the right of admission (free or paid) and our decision is final.
