Conference Series on Finding Ethical Alpha

Building Task Force to Set the Course for Future Alternative investments

PURPOSE

Guide world’s significant asset allocators to embrace long-term value investing across all asset  classes.  Not another effort  to allocate 1% or 5% of portfolios to ESR, SRI, TBL or Impact, rather

a direct initiative to have 100% of portfolio assets embedded in the globally accepted risk/return met­rics and screens related to environmental and humanitarian imperatives.

Future Prosperity (value) driven by a focus on People and Planet

Free up remaining choke points hindering global asset allocators from embracing the underlying investment thesis of SRI, ESG, Impact, TBL, etc., by bringing together expert leaders from plan sponsors, endowments, foundations and private family offices to form task forces to promote the next evolution of investing for the benefit of all. 

The Ethical Markets/Endobility research conference on FINDING ETHICAL ALPHA, May 12-13, 2014, The Renaissance at World Golf Village, St. Augustine/Jacksonville, FL, will be the catalyst for presenting, in     October 2014, innovative strategies to hundreds of the world’s large asset allocators .

To attend in May, visit our website or contact Connie Gilchrist, Endobility Director of Marketing,                 connie (at) Endobility (dot) com.
