About the Summit

HFM Allocator Intelligence Summit is a premier networking and education event designed specifically for allocators, investment consultants, advisors and analysts to meet best in class fund managers from across a range of strategy groups. 

Unlike other capital introduction events, the HFM Summit is a smaller, more intimate forum, where you can benefit from a highly bespoke program of meetings, networking and educational sessions, all carefully curated to meet your specific investment interests.

The Summit offers a host of networking opportunities, introducing you to managers through both structured and informal meetings, and allowing you to socialise with other allocators and advisors at the numerous coffee breaks, lunches, evening meals and drinks receptions.

What will I learn

Summit rountable

The Summit will educate you on new investment opportunities that could help diversify and gain greater returns for your or your clients' portfolios.

This is done through roundtables, presentations and panel debates, as well as the one-to-one meetings.

Each day is structured around two key strategies, with delegates able to pick their sessions and build a bespoke program of educational content:

Day 1 - 30 September

Day 2 - 1 October

The roundtables are led by fund managers specialising in that session's specific strategy, giving you the chance to put your questions to the experts, as well as share your experiences with other allocators and advisors. Each roundtable hosts a small number of delegates, to allow for open and honest debate that is shaped by what the allocators want to discussView the full educational programme >>
