Jersey Finance has announced details of its Annual Private Wealth Conference this month, where speakers will discuss issues driving private client decision-making and challenges facing the international wealth management community.
Delegates will also hear two keynote addresses from President of World Athletics Sebastian Coe (pictured), as well as author and World Economic Forum Young Global Leader Rachel Botsman (pictured).
The conference, entitled People and Purpose: New Thinking for a New Era, will focus on two developing trends destined to have a transformative effect on advisers and their clients in the wealth management sector.
The first, the environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda, has been thrust into the mainstream of financial services in recent years. A panel, moderated by Andrew Shirley, Partner, Head of Rural Research and the Wealth Report, Knight Frank, will review ESG’s impact on investment attitudes, decision-making and evaluation in a discussion session entitled Positive Purpose.
In a second panel session, moderated by Jersey Finance Chairman Jason Laity and entitled Digitalisation – A New Era for Wealth, panellists will delve into the consequences of digitalisation and the artificial intelligence revolution and how the international financial services industry is responding.
Representatives on the panels include:
• Jordan Greenaway, Managing Director, Transmission Private
• Sally Tennant, Founder, Acorn Capital Advisers
• Jessica Crane, Executive Director, London & Capital
• Nicola Barber, Partner, Head of Charities, James Hambro & Partners
• Benjamin Meyer, Director Global Business Development, Sotheby’s
• Peter Brown, Joint Global Leader, People & Organisation, PwC UK
The conference is scheduled to take place on Tuesday 28 September at The Brewery in Chiswell Street, London EC1Y 4SD. It begins at 12.30pm with a networking session and lunch.
