FINDINGS FROM ADVISORY DISTRIBUTORS - NOVEMBER 2016

Summary

The 22nd Meeting of Minds Advisory Distributors took place on the 29th November 2016 at The Berkeley Hotel, London. This document summarises key issues raised in the topics discussed during the roundtables that took place on the day.

A Meeting of Minds Advisory Distributors is a strategic forum organised by Owen James. It is an opportunity for some 60 plus CEOs and CIOs of the top 60 Advisory firms; product and service providers and industry experts to meet in a neutral environment where they can examine industry issues and opportunities and develop business strategies to address them.

This Meeting operates two streams - the CEO stream brings together those individuals who set the overall strategy for the firm - be it a national, network or consolidator. The CIO stream brings together those involved in setting their firm’s investment strategy in terms of the products and funds they market to their clients.

Participants enjoy access to strategic insight, active involvement in shaping the industry and networking at the highest level.

The core of the Meeting involves a series of boardroom style sessions addressing a pre-researched and pre-agreed agenda, with open discussion led by objective and professional moderators. External speakers spark debate and encourage fresh and original thinking.
