(Advocate for Institutional Investors)


Event Description
The Forum for Institutional Investors is the premiere annual conference in the field, bringing representatives of public pension systems and other institutional investors from around the globe together with experts from finance, business, the law, academia, and the media in a relaxed, collegial setting.

The 2009 Forum, "Protecting Shareholder Value: Institutional Investor Activism in a Changed World," was held on October 22-23, 2009 in New York City and focused on the evolving landscape of investment philosophy, regulation, litigation and corporate governance, as speakers and faculty examined the global impact of the economic downturn.

The 2010 Forum, the 16th in the series, is now in its planning stages.  Please check back later for more information.
