The future of asset management in Cyprus & Greece

The prolonged economic crisis in Greece, along with the Eurogroup decisions in March 2013 regarding Cyprus, had a significant impact on the trust of global and local investors in the financial services sector in the region. In the context of the challenging economic and social backdrop, it is critical for the local asset management industry to reinvent itself or risk losing its key role in rebuilding the local economies to global players. The conference focuses on the challenges and the opportunities facing the asset management industry in Cyprus and Greece. Speakers and participants examine how the industry is likely to evolve as a consequence of increasing investor demand, as well as the investors’ increasing appetite for sound investment strategies, efficient implementation and diversification.
