About This Event
For most investors, passive investment solutions have become indispensable: whether for retirement planning, for steady portfolio growth, or to participate in market developments abroad. ETFs & co. have gained a great reputation over the past years - cheap, practical and liquid, are the often cited advantages. But the possibilities of passive solutions are far from exhausted.
In principle, any well-defined investment strategy can be reconstructed in a passive financial product. Even demanding conditions for stock selection can be implemented reliably and transparently this way. For example, the great interest of investors for ESG opportunities is met to a large extent with index-linked products in the portfolio. But the more sophisticated the construction of passive products becomes, the more important it is to have a thorough understanding of the legal environment as well.
Meet with top-class experts at the Indexing Forum by "Finanz und Wirtschaft" to explore the potential of passive solutions. We are looking forward to welcoming you on 21 October 2021.
