Event replay
With cautious optimism, asset managers are navigating a macro landscape characterized by long-term growth potential and diverse opportunities. While sustainable investing evolves and remains a focus for many, investors have also looked to market-diversification and emerging-market opportunities to enhance portfolio performance.
In this event replay from the 2024 Asia Summit, Wellington President and Managing Partner Steve Klar joins a fascinating discussion with industry leaders who share their perspectives on the next frontier in asset management.
Power of ideas
The Power of Ideas series features short essays from global leaders across industries and perspectives around a focal theme.
The 2024 Asia Summit theme was Impactful Ideas: Purposeful Action and the collection covers a wide range of themes, including health tech, sustainable development, and data sharing.
