Global Wealth Management Summit

Have you registered for our upcoming free webinar?

Our panel will be discussing the reallocation of portfolios to capture European outperformance on 24 September, don't miss out.

Market volatility and aggressive trade policies are compelling portfolio managers to hedge against geopolitical risk. Wealth managers are safeguarding assets by diversifying allocations, broadening equity exposure and supporting clients in the use of uncorrelated and unlisted investments. Investors are pinpointing sectors that may be boosted by Trump’s deregulation agenda, while defence funds are emerging as a new long-term thematic play.

On the business side, private banks are refining core competencies as higher interest rates and price-sensitive clients are squeezing profit margins. Some are doubling down on a strategy of serving the ultra-wealthy, while others are scaling automation for mass-affluent clients. The industry is ripe for M&A, and private equity backed consolidators are seeking to leverage economies of scale and capitalise on the sector’s growth potential. How are incumbents reimagining their operational models and expanding their cross-border capabilities as competition grows between rival wealth hubs? 

Now in its eighth year, the Global Wealth Management Summit — FT Live and PWM’s flagship gathering of private banks, family offices and wealth managers — will address all these questions, and more. Across two days, a series of panel discussions, debates and interactive masterclasses will tackle the operational issues for business leaders, investment approaches amid geopolitical realignment, and product development strategies to capture a globally mobile client base.
