The Responsible Investment Forum will look at the impact of the new regulations for LGPS investment committees, and is designed to help the Scheme Advisory Board formulate the sector’s response to an increasing awareness of investment committees’ responsibilities to their pension funds and to society in general.

Held each year in February, the LAPF Strategic Investment Forum is a one-day investment conference for senior LGPS fund investment officers and their advisers. Consisting of short, snappy, thought-provoking presentations, interviews, expert panel sessions and roundtable discussions focusing on key investment issues, the conference attracts strong attendance from the sector, and has become an important event in the calendar for local authority pension fund representatives and their advisers.

The Pension Fund Investors Dinner brings pension funds and their advisers together in a relaxed, informal environment where issues of the day can be discussed and relationships established or renewed. Representatives from pension funds, consultants, advisers and fund managers sit at each table at the dinner, and a drinks reception beforehand offers the ideal opportunity for attendees to widen their circle of friends and acquaintances. Timed to coincide with the PLSA Investment Conference in March, this event continues to go from strength to strength.
