Programme 2018
Time | Speaker | Panel/Presentation |
12.00 noon | Registration | |
1.00 p.m. | Dr. Martin Reck, Managing Director Cash Market, Deutsche Börse AG | Welcome |
1.15 p.m. | Panel 1 Axel D. Angermann, Chief Economist, FERI Group
| Global economic and capital market outlook: numerous factors point to continued upswing despite increased volatility Global economic growth in 2018 thus far has been strong: most emerging and industrialised countries have seen positive development. The economic risks forecast by pessimists have not materialised. However, tension across the capital markets has increased. Three chief economists will present their assessments of the economic outlook and the impact of potential risks. |
2.15 p.m. | Panel 2 Leif Dockerill, Head of Asset Managment, Kreissparkasse Ludwigsburg | Overview of hedging strategies: how can portfolios be protected from market fluctuations? In times of historically low interest rates, equities remain the asset class of choice. A turnaround is, however, taking shape, increasing the risk of setbacks. Which market strategy is suitable to counter these developments? On this panel, experts will present various risk management strategies for investment portfolios. |
3.00 p.m. | Coffee break | |
3.30 p.m. | Panel 3 Philip Annecke, Head of ETF Distribution Germany and Austria, JPMorgan Asset Management | ESG ETFs: responsible investments ESG is short for “environment, social, governance”. Investors interested in companies that adhere closely to ESG standards can choose from a wide variety of ESG ETFs. The panel will take a closer look at the factors that distinguish the sustainable investment trend as well as the question of how social responsibility and return expectations match up. |
4.15 p.m. | Panel 4 Volkmar-Alexander Baur, Private & Business Clients, Deutsche Bank AG
| Discover attractive investment opportunities in emerging markets: which regions offer the most promising outlook? Emerging markets are benefiting from a conducive economic environment. Among other things, this is due to the improved fundamental data of individual countries. Many believe that there is good reason for specific regions – and some companies, in particular – to continue to benefit from the positive conditions. Our ETF experts will explain which regions are attractive for investment and which companies investors should focus on. |
5.00 p.m. | Coffee break | |
5.30 p.m. | Panel 5 Patrick Doser, Specialist for ETF- and Index-Investments, BlackRock Thomas Meyer zu Drewer, Head of ComStage ETFs, ComStage ETFs | Traditional sectors vs future-oriented sectors: identify above-average growth opportunities and create the right portfolio mix Our world is driven by digitisation and unlimited data volumes, affecting all business sectors and our way of life. Global digital communication, robots, drones, nano- and biotechnology as well as autonomous vehicles are just some of the symptoms of this development. On the other hand, there are basic needs catered to by the traditional defensive sectors, which yield stable returns that are not linked to the performance of the general economy. Our panelists will present promising traditional and future-oriented industries. |
6.15 p.m. | Get together |
