This event will look at how each crisis strengthens the argument for strong investment governance. Well-designed portfolios in expert and responsive hands enables investors to be ready to seize opportunities whenever they arise. An enhanced governance framework is valuable even in calm markets, but can be the difference between success and failure when volatility hits.
