FA Masterclass - Calming clients post Brexit

Time and date: 20 September 2016 9.00 AM to 20 September 2016 1.00 PM
Location: Edinburgh, DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Edinburgh City Centre
Organiser: Financial Adviser

'Keep calm and carry on' may be a well-worn mantra but it has held true, especially after the UK's decision to leave the European Union sent investors - and global markets - into a state of shock.

Headlines speak of property funds suspending trading, sterling sliding and volatility in domestic and overseas equities, but what is really going on behind the headlines? How can you steer your clients through the market noise towards a calmer approach to long-term investment planning?

This Masterclass, in partnership with Russell Investments, aims to help you engage with your clients so they are not tempted to act on sentiment, but instead act on common sense. It will also endeavour to give you practical insights into forging long-term investment portfolios that will better weather the twists and turns the markets will no doubt see as the UK negotiates its Brexit terms with the European Union.

Please note the event is for financial intermediaries only.
