A year ago\, cryptocurrency prices\, ICOs\, and stories of unscrupulous activity gained the attention of members\, unsure if this was innovation or hype. In July 2018\, stating “This is no passing fad”\, the CFA Institute announced the addition of cryptocurrency and blockchain to the CFA curriculum\, beginning in June 2019. According to Greenwich Associates\, in 2017 financial services companies spent $1.7 billion on blockchain\, with 14% of those surveyed already deploying blockchain solutions. Today there are over 1500 cryptocurrencies\, ICOs have raised over $9 billion in 2018\, and there are close to 300 cryptocurrency funds. Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are top of mind for regulators\, legislators\, central banks\, the IMF\, the World Economic Forum and others. \nLearning Outcomes\n\nGain an understanding of blockchain\, cryptocurrencies and the current state of the industry\nUnderstand areas of the financial services industry where blockchain and cryptocurrency are being explored and which areas are closest to widespread adoption\nAreas outside financial services that represent the most promising use cases/investment opportunities\nHow the technology will impact the skills required for a career in financial services\n\n\nContinuing Education Credits – Sponsored by Kaplan Schweser\nCFA: 6.5 CE Credits \nAs part of our commitment to raising professional standards in the industry\, CFA Society New York is dedicated to facilitating the continued education of our membership base and the financial community at-large through an expanding variety of Continued Education (CE) programs and offerings.

These will focus on ESG trends and developments across North America\, Latin America\, Europe\, Asia\, and Africa\, and offer regional perspectives\, unique challenges and opportunities\, and their outlooks. \nAhead of this event\, CFANY\, CFA Institute and 23 other CFA societies across the world have teamed up with Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) to conduct a comprehensive 2017 global ESG integration study covering equities\, bonds and sovereign debt.  The study results are expected to be published in the form of four separate reports\, each covering ESG trends in the Americas\, Europe and APAC\, supplemented by a fourth report consisting of case studies.  Based on an initial analysis of the results\, the report covering the Americas supports previous CFA Institute survey findings\, showing that risk analysis and client demand are the main reasons for taking ESG integration into consideration in the investment process.  The report’s findings for the Americas will be published in advance of the ESG Asset Owner Summit\, and its conclusions will be introduced and discussed at that time. \nAsset Owner Organizations Speaking\n\nAllianz Life Insurance General Account\nOntario Teachers Pension Plan\nNew York City Retirement Systems\nCanadian Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB)\nNippon Life Insurance Company\nAPG Asset Management N.V.\nAlberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo)\nUnited Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund (UNJSPF)\nCalifornia State Teachers’ Retirement System (CalSTRS)\nCalifornia Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS)\nTIAA Insurance General Account\nSouth Africa Public Investment Corporation (PIC)\nNigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA)\nNational Social Security Fund (NSSF) Uganda\nSovereign Fund for Strategic Investments (FONSIS) Senegal\nMocambique Previdente (Mozambique Provident)\nJapan’s Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF)\nEuropean Investment Bank (EIB)\nInter American Development Bank\nWorld Bank\nCaisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ)\nPension Boards – United Church of Christ (PB-UCC)\nThe Prince’s Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S)\nAviva Insurance\nEuropean Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)\nEnvironmental Defense Fund\nCalifornia Insurance Commissioner\nNew York State Insurance Fund (NYSIF)\nOPTrust\nManulife\nSan Francisco Employees’ Retirement System (SFERS)\nAfrican Development Bank (AfDB)\n\nSelected Asset Owner Organizations Attending\n\nNew York State Common Retirement Fund\nKorea’s National Pension Service\nFrance’s Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations\nChubb / ACE Insurance General Account\nChicago Teachers’\nGlenmede Trust\nNatal Joint Municipal Pension Fund\nTiedemann Wealth Management\nTrinity Wall Street\nProsperity Life Insurance Co.\nKenya Power Pension Fund\nMetlife\nBotswana Insurance Holdings Limited\nMerck Family Fund\nUC Davis Foundation\nPrudential\nBrazil’s Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmong many others…\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n×Asset Owners: Request Complimentary Admission to this EventCloseSeries Sponsors and PartnersFounding SponsorGold SponsorSilver SponsorPartnersNOTE \nModerators and panelists are always genuine asset owners or investment consultants.

In particular\, we’ll explore\, in detail\, the trends towards sustainable investing and allocation to ESG factors at national pension funds\, interest in alternatives and other diversification opportunities within the parameters of each organization’s investment mandates and the embedded opportunities & challenges to their long-term capital management philosophy. While the diversity of these funds and their investment practices makes it hard to paint them in the same brushstrokes\, National Pension have generally been yield-seeking\, long-term investors which have allocated heavily private markets in the last decade. In that setting\, the discussion will also focus on each institution’s long-term approach to asset allocation and trends in investment plans including key risks and headways\, benchmarks focused on long-term value creation and evaluation of internal and external managers.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual AI and the Data Revolution Conference
DESCRIPTION:OverviewArtificial Intelligence and methods of analysis such as machine learning\, the availability of new data sets\, sophisticated computing and computerized trading have the potential to revolutionize the financial services industry. Investment managers who know how to adopt these new technologies may have an edge; fundamental analysts and PMs may evolve to quantamental. Quants will rely more on an AI-based modeling to incorporate qualitative factors. Nonetheless\, with innovation there can be potential setbacks; some data will have no value and complex computing techniques won’t always produce better results. Finding the right balance between human and machine is critical. Though explainable AI in on the horizon\, allocators and asset owners may find themselves assessing a blackbox. \nThis conference will examine the effects of AI driven methods of analysis\, new data sets and increased computing power on the investment process.

Such plans are common in sectors like the building trades\, where the workers move from job to job\, taking their benefits with them. The trucking\, retail and mining industries also have many multiemployer plans. ‎The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation estimates that about 10 million Americans are earning or receiving pensions from the roughly 1\,400 multiemployer defined benefit pension plans in the US.‎ While the financial crisis greatly impacted the funded status of these plans\, they have recovered significantly since 2009. ‎The conference will explore the perspectives of senior Multiemployer Pension investment professionals and how they are managing not only the volatile equity markets\, but also the low interest rate environment. Speakers at this event are some of the most sophisticated multiemployer (union) CIOs\, overseeing $48 billion in assets.

SUMMARY:Insurance as an Asset Class
DESCRIPTION:Insurance as an Asset ClassThursday\, November 29 | 6:00 – 8:00 PM\nFollowed by a Catered Networking Reception \nBecome a MemberAlternative Investment GroupREGISTRATION & FEESTO ATTEND\nMembers: $30\nNonmembers: $75 \nRegister to AttendCOMPLIMENTARY LIVESTREAM\nFree\nMembers Only \nRegister for LivestreamOverview Institutions and Individuals looking to build a diversified portfolio of financial assets usually face the issue of high correlation. This has become an even more acute problem as financial markets have integrated around the world and technology has simplified the access to once arcane asset classes to the average investor. \nOne of the few asset classes that still remains largely independent from the correlation to financial markets is investment in insurance. Insurance policies valuations are largely based on the factors that directly affect each unique policy or group of policies. \nIn its first Insurance as an Asset Class event\, CFANY has invited managers focused on investing in two large groups of insurance investments: Life Settlements and Catastrophe Insurance. \nThe Life Settlements business started with the AIDS crisis in the 1980s and quickly evolved into a very technical business where insurance policies were exchanged for cash based on estimations on people’s mortality. New investors (including Warren Buffet) brought valuation methods and capital to the industry\, helping to turn it into an asset class in the last 15 years. \nCatastrophe Insurance investing started based on the need for the Re-Insurance market to efficiently tap into additional capital to diversify the risk of large but uncertain insurance policies. The securitization of that re-insurance risk in a bond format draw demand from fixed income funds initially. As the number of issues increased\, dedicated catastrophe investors surged\, taking the risk as a bond or as a re-insurance policy.  \nOur goal with this gathering is to enhance our knowledge of the asset class and understand the perspective of each of these practitioners in each of their sub-markets. \nLearning Outcome Statements\n\nLearn about the industry structure of the life settlement business\nLearn about the industry structure of the catastrophe bond market\nLearn about the history of insurance investing\n\n\nLocation\nCFA Society New York\n1540 Broadway – Suite 1010\n45th St. Entrance \nAgenda\n6:00 PM | REGISTRATION \n\n6:30 PM | OPENING STATEMENT \n\n6:35 PM | LIFE SETTLEMENT MARKET KEYNOTE \nAndrew Plevin\, Co-CEO & Founder\, BroadRiver Asset Management \n\n6:45 PM | PANEL 1: LIFE SETTLEMENT DISCUSSION \nMODERATOR\nJim Pugliese\, Chief Development Officer\, RiverRock Funds \nPANELISTS \nBrian O’Grady\, Managing Director\, Marketing\, Vida Capital \nAndrew Plevin\, Co-CEO & Founder\, BroadRiver Asset Management \n\n7:15 PM | CATASTROPHE INSURANCE AND RE-INSURANCE MARKET KEYNOTE  \nCaleb Wong\, Portfolio Manager\, OppenheimerFund \n\n7:25 PM | PANEL 2: CATASTROPHE INSURANCE AND RE-INSURANCE \nMODERATOR\nPeter J.

As Endowments and Foundations are faced with a challenging return environment and higher market volatility\, the outlook for future returns seems muted when compared to their impressive record of double digit growth generated in the recent past. Most are responding to the lack of readily evident market opportunities by investing in longer-term opportunities such as alternatives\, exploring private markets and turning to strategic partners. As Endowments and Foundations seek to take a more hands-on approach to investment management and increase the complexity of their portfolios by moving into new markets\, their perspectives and approach towards these goals offer a valuable lesson for investors.Series Sponsors and PartnersFounding SponsorGold SponsorSilver SponsorPartnersNote \nModerators and panelists are always genuine asset owners or investment consultants.
