Findings from Advisory Distributors Meeting of Minds - June 2019

SUMMARY

The twenty-seventh Meeting of Minds Advisory Distributors took place on Tuesday 25th June at Tylnley Hall in Hook. This document summarises the key issues raised in the topics discussed during the roundtables that took place on the day.

A Meeting of Minds Advisory Distributors is a biannual strategic forum organised by Owen James. It is an opportunity for some 60 plus CEOs/Managing Directors - who are responsible for setting the business strategy of their organisations - and CIOs/Heads of Investment - who set the overarching investment strategy for the organisation, to come together with product and service providers keen to engage with them on a strategic level. These Meetings provide a neutral environment where they can examine industry issues, opportunities and develop business strategies to address them.

Participants enjoy access to strategic insight, active involvement in shaping the industry and networking at the highest level.


The day is a blend of roundtable sessions addressing a pre-researched and pre-agreed agenda with open discussion led by objective and professional moderators; keynotes provided by external speakers whose remit is to spark debate and encourage fresh and original thinking; plus substantial networking both structured and unstructured.
