Your only chance to learn from and network with leading buy side COOs and Heads of Investment Operations

The investment operations landscape continues to transform at breakneck speed. Seismic industry shifts including the transition to T+1 and evolving global regulations require buy side firms to constantly review and adapt their post-trade tech, processes and skill sets to succeed.

This, combined with greater margin pressures, increased client expectations and data proliferation mean buy side firms must dramatically streamline front-to-back workflows and upgrade their system capabilities to deliver tangible business value.

Find out how to best navigate evolving market conditions by joining the world’s largest investment operations conference.

Benchmark with the most influential COOs and Heads of Investment Operations from leading buy side firms and gain practical insights on:

Streamlining operational workflows to drive process optimization and reduce operating costs
Expanding operational capabilities to capitalize on alternative investment opportunities
Embracing disruptive AI and ML technologies to accelerate the digital transformation journey
Driving data transformation programs to process diverse data sets at high volumes
