Robin Bowerman, Head of Retail, Vanguard Australia
In response to one of the most severe market tests this century, the Government has embarked on a regulatory review across superannuation, tax and financial planning. As a result, 2010 is shaping up as a seminal year that could have a profound impact on investors and investment approaches for the next 10 years.
Robin Bowerman will discuss proposed regulatory changes and investment strategies looking forward.
Joe Brennan, Chief Investment Officer, Vanguard Australia
This session will explore the investment landscape and expectations looking forward. Joe will discuss economic indicators historically priced in by the market and the risks in investment decision-making. This will be followed by an examination of asset class trends and implications for building investment portfolios.
Key topics will include:
• Economic and asset class trends
• Risk versus return in equities
• Currency in international portfolio construction
• The long term risks in China’s transition
• Strategic asset allocation decision-making
