Impact investing challenges the view that institutional investors must focus on purely financial factors in order to achieve their strategic investment goals. This half-day seminar will help to shape the response of the pension fund sector to an increased awareness of the opportunities presented by impact investing.

DC Question Time is a half-day peer learning and networking opportunity for senior practitioners to compare notes on the major challenges in the evolution of DC Pensions. Similar in format to Question Time on the TV (though in private session), audience members send in pre-set questions which they pose to the panel in live time. All other participants are encouraged to ask spontaneous questions at any point during the discussions. The result is a vibrant debate on the key issues concerning the leading practitioners in DC pensions.
