What is the TLS?
The Thought Leadership Summit is a unique one-day workshop, designed for high profile professionals in the Asset Management & Mutual Fund industry.

Participants enjoy the opportunity to debate current Asset Management trends and possibilities with their peers as well as participate in strategic discussions about the critical issues facing the industry - both today and in the future.

In just one day of fast-paced debate, you will be able to shape and benefit from industry insights and results that would normally take months of research to achieve.

Attending the TLS also provides a platform to demonstrate your breadth of experience, capabilities and leadership to public and private clients.

Places are limited and demand is expected to be high – so be sure to register your interest as soon as possible.

 In focus for the second TLS
The second TLS, entitled "Reinventing Distribution: The Future of Asset Management", focused on the challenges of distribution and developed a framework for understanding these issues:
  • Who, and what, will determine the successful distribution models of tomorrow?
     
  • What are the sustainable competitive advantages in distribution? Breadth? Scope? Size? Product range? Services? Technology?
     
  • Will a key to distribution success in the future be new product development and innovation? Will mutual funds be the driving product for retail distribution?
     
  • Is cross border distribution a reality -or a distraction from growth? Should the focus be on the countries or on regions? What will be the role of regulation in this decision?
     
  • What role will effective advice and strong communication play in successful distribution models?
     
  • Will the European market support so many suppliers of investment products and services as it does today? If so, what does this mean for the distribution landscape of the future?
