Heralding a new decade for the fund management industry
HKIFA 14th Annual Conference
HKIFA 14th Annual Conference will be held at Conrad Hong Kong on Monday, June 7th, 2021. Entitled “Heralding a new decade for the fund management industry”, the Conference aims to provide a platform to facilitate in-depth discussions of key factors that will shape the future of the fund management industry.
Some of the topics that will be covered:
- From the lens of the authorities/regulators: Fintech - What does it mean for the financial services industry?
- Collaboration and connectivity in the new era
- Distribution – how the landscape is changing: new opportunities and potential threats to the existing business model
- Asset classes – beyond equities and bonds… What other alternatives are investors looking for to better leverage on the emerging opportunities? What are the value propositions that managers should offer?
- Wealth Management Connect: Navigating the investment opportunities within GBA
- ESG – Opportunities and challenges
- The transformational impact of 5G – on our daily life and the finance industry
Market participants, regulators, distributors and other stakeholders can network and discuss issues pertinent to the industry; and see how we can work together to foster Hong Kong’s position as a premier fund hub. We very much look forward to your participation in this flagship event.

IIQAS CPD
This conference may be recognised as a qualified CPD activity for the Insurance Intermediaries Quality Assurance Scheme ("IIQAS") CPD Programme (Note A). However, we do not warrant that the attendance of this conference would automatically be recognised as complying with the IIQAS CPD requirements as different self-regulatory organisations ("SRO") may have different requirements. If in doubt, the insurance intermediaries should contact their SRO for clarification.
Note A:
CPD courses organized or formally approved by the specified professional bodies (including the Law Society of Hong Kong) for their own CPD programmes (confined to structured activities) can also be recognized as qualified CPD activities for the IIQAS CPD Programme provided that they are within the scope specified below. These courses are not required to be assessed by the Assessment Authority. They must be related to local insurance (or related) legislation, regulatory aspects of insurance practice in Hong Kong, insurance, actuarial science, risk management, financial planning, or other disciplines which are directly related to the work of insurance intermediaries, such as investment, law and legal knowledge, finance, business, commerce, management, engineering or communication skills. Generally, one CPD hour can be earned for each hour’s participation in these activities.
