From Innovation to Adaptation: Building a Future‑Focused Portfolio

Over the past few years, asset owners have weathered significant challenges including a global pandemic, rising interest rates, and the steady upward march of inflation. As some of these initial shocks morph into longer‑term trends, asset owners are adapting to a different set of economic and market conditions than they’ve seen in the past.

The 2023 International Best Practices Forum will explore the innovative approaches Canadian asset owners are using to adapt to this shifting world while highlighting case studies from their international peers. From sustainable infrastructure, to portfolio construction, to emerging markets, how are asset owners building future‑focused portfolios?
