Best of Breed - Global Research and Investment Programme

In our world of financial services, the need to fully understand offshore & alternate investments is now an essential element in every portfolio. Given that Australia has less than 2% of the world market, researchers & financial professionals within Australia are continually looking for ways to be better equipped when researching products or preparing a client's portfolio.

The "Best of Breed" Global Research & Investment program has been conducted since 2000.

The aim of the "Best of Breed" Global Research & Investment Program ("BOB") is to provide financial services professionals with an opportunity to meet with a select group of investment managers and senior industry experts offshore. The program offers an invaluable opportunity to share information, knowledge, insights and expertise amongst global colleagues & experts across the global financial services community.

Whilst it may be true that Australia is at the leading edge of financial services, "BOB" takes participants into a "hands on" global environment to further expand the knowledge of our global industry.

For research analysts, the program covers global investment with a variety of investment style fund managers including boutique and alternate managers and is intended to form the basis of a fund manager review.

For industry professionals, the program provides a wide variety of business related sessions within the global financial services fraternity. Where possible "Best of Breed" incorporates industry conferences to coincide with the program.
