CFA Society New York 1540 Broadway, New York City, NY, United States

The 3rd Annual Single Family Office Conference will feature a high-level discussion on major investment themes and global market dynamics from the perspective of single family offices. Single family offices are by definition running one family’s capital. They are therefore inherently not commercial in the sense that they are not looking to run third party capital and consequently generally prefer to be opaque and obscure investors and allocators. It is not often that third parties are given the opportunity to peak behind their proverbial ‘hoods.’ This panel will provide a rare glimpse at the allocators, their methodologies, investments and market views.
