HKIFA 13th Annual Conference


Friday, November 1st 2019
JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong

You are cordially invited to enroll into the 13th HKIFA Annual Conference, which will be held at JW Marriott Hotel Hong Kong on November 1, 2019 (Friday). This year, we will focus on “Sustainability and the Greater Bay Area”, in particular, we wish to explore the roles and contributions of the fund management industry to these important causes.

Some of the topics that will be covered:

  • Greater Bay Area Development Plan: opportunities and challenges for the fund management industry
  • Sustainable investment: what do asset owners look for? How do fund managers integrate ESG into the investment process?
  • Roadmap for sustainable and green finance in the Mainland and Hong Kong
  • Pensions – MPF into 2030
  • How technology can be deployed to foster the development of the wealth management industry for the Greater Bay Area

The event aims to provide a platform for market participants, regulators, distributors and stakeholders to network and parse out issues pertinent to the industry; and to 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 and contribution to the discussions.

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. For more information, please see the CPD Information Sheet issued by the Insurance Authority at https://www.ia.org.hk/en/supervision/reg_ins_intermediaries/files/CPD_Info_Sheet_Eng_Jun_2017.pdf.
