Blockchain in financial services
2023-03-22 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Zurich)
The crypto world has suffered a setback due to geopolitical uncertainty. Nevertheless, blockchain technology remains a central cornerstone in the innovative power of the financial industry.

This year’s edition of the “Blockchain in Financial Services 2023” conference will be dedicated to the latest trends in the industry. The creeping path to Web 3.0 holds many opportunities for the financial landscape. But what exactly will this Web 3.0 look like? What role will financial institutions play, and what other opportunities does the new Internet hold?

The conference will also provide insights beyond national borders and show how Estonia has become a digital island and a world leader in e-governance. How the system has built the bridge to the financial sector and what implications it has for the sector is impressively shown.

We look forward to welcoming you to the «Finanz und Wirtschaft» blockchain conference. We bring together thought leaders of the crypto scene with decision-makers in the financial centre to assess strategic opportunities and risks and help shape the future of a decentralized financial economy.

Financial planning made easy - how to build up your wealth
2023-03-21 20:00 - 21:00 (Europe/Zurich)
● You hear a lot in the news or social media about money, and you are worried about your retirement or about investing?

● Would you like to start managing and growing your money but there is so much information out there and you don’t know where to start?

● You have potentially even read some books on the subject, but you are missing the practical tipps?

Clara felt the same way and it really put her off – even though she worked at a bank. Back then she was looking for a structure and simple instruction to get started. Her goal was no longer “to do something” – meaning winging it – but to have her money under control.

10 years later, a few books later and going through the education of being a certified financial planner, she is happy to share her knowledge with you. Today she is no longer afraid of her bank statement – why? Because she finally has a plan for her money. If you want to learn more about what she has learned on her journey, please sign-up for the webinar.

Main topics:

● How to define your financial goals

● How to create a solid financial plan

● Tipps and tricks in order to implement your financial plan

● How to navigate your investments through times of crises

Speaker:

Clara Creitz has been working in the financial industry for more than 10 years in various positions for insurance companies and private banks. One of her key areas of focus is financial education as I have developed many programs for financial advisors as well as clients. She is a certified financial planner (CFP) and the founder of Finelles (www.finelles.com). Her goal is to help women to gain financial competence and confidence for more financial empowerment and freedom.

Private market forum
2023-03-09 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Zurich)
In search of yield, institutional investors are increasingly turning to private markets. In addition to excess returns, portfolio diversification plays a central role, and the low correlation to traditional investments contributes to this growth. Private assets also offer an opportunity to accelerate the transformation to a sustainable future.

But how do you properly implement private markets investments in your portfolio? What opportunities and risks does this market environment offer, and how do you combine return and ESG in this area? Questions that experts will get to the bottom of and for which they will offer solutions.

In addition to implementation, the question of liquidity in the portfolio is addressed. How liquid should the portfolio be, and what strategies are there that offer added value?

In addition, the latest scientific findings are transmitted on-site. They provide a basis for decision-making for future investments and bridge the gap between scientists and practitioners.

Embark on a journey of new possibilities together with «Finanz und Wirtschaft». Seize the opportunity to exchange ideas with leading experts and secure your participation now for 09 March 2023.

FINTECH 2022 – MASTERING THE TRANSFORMATION
2022-06-29 08:00 - 17:30 (Europe/Zurich)
On the 29th of June, the FinTech 2022 Forum will take place at the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute in Zurich.

Banks and insurance companies are undergoing a multi-layered transformation. In order to master the digital transformation with all its facets, banks, insurance companies, start-ups and the like must be successful on many fronts at the same time. Organizational culture, technological know-how, and creative business models and strategies must interact symbiotically to master the transformation. Organizational culture must allow for more agile and collaborative approaches. Technology must pave the way from the back to the front office. And last but not least, financial players must have the courage to enter new strategic territory with open finance, new business models and value chains.

Those who neglect the interfaces between these success factors risk losing customers and talent and being among the losers in the next chapter of the transformation. That’s why the leading FinTech conference of “Finanz und Wirtschaft” brings together thought leaders, visionary practitioners and decision makers from different sectors. Together, at “FinTech 2022”, we will shed light on the interplay between technologies, future-proof mindsets, and strategic courage and creativity.

INDEXING FORUM 2022 – IMPLEMENT INVESTMENT STRATEGIES PASSIVELY
2022-06-21 08:00 - 18:00 (Europe/Zurich)
On the 21st of june 2022, Karen Wendt will moderate the “Thematic Funds for New Growth Potentials” Panel at te Indexing Forum 2022 at the Dolder Grand in Zurich

Passive investment solutions such as index funds and ETFs are indispensable tools for many investors. They are useful for long-term provisioning, for steady portfolio building, or for tactically participating in market developments. Index investments are transparent and cost-effective – thanks to fierce price competition among providers. And they are on the road to success. ETFs attracted more capital last year than ever before, and the number of new issues also rose to a record high.

Many of the latest index investments come from three areas: they follow a rules-based strategy, they take into account environmental, social and good governance (ESG) criteria, or they are focused on a specific investment theme, such as infrastructure or the cloud business. Passive financial products offer a wide variety of options, as they can be used to map any clearly defined strategy. The choice for investors is diverse.

We invite you to explore the potential of passive investment solutions. Discuss with top-class experts at the Indexing Forum of “Finanz und Wirtschaft”. We look forward to welcoming you on June 21.

Blockchain in Financial Services 2022
2022-05-31 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Zurich)
The prices of cryptocurrencies rise and fall with the whims of the markets, but the blockchain, it remains. Its triumph seems unstoppable, especially as the decentralization of finance (DeFi) advances. The paradigm shift is not yet complete, but more and more financial services are relying on DeFi principles. One thing is certain, the potential of these approaches is enormous. But how can traditional financial institutions prepare for these developments? How can a blockchain strategy be developed that fully exploits the potential of DeFi? How can Switzerland maintain its position as a leading Blockchain nation in the future? We look forward to welcoming you to the “Finanz und Wirtschaft” blockchain conference. We bring together thought leaders from the crypto scene with decision makers from the financial center to assess strategic opportunities and risks and help shape the future of a decentralized financial economy.

Sustainable Investment Forum 2022
2022-05-10 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Zurich)
Using investments to make an impact on the sustainability of society and finance is more important today than ever before. Pension funds, the financial sector and industrial companies each have different priorities.
Focal points such as promoting sustainable positive social development or investing in companies with a sustainable business model are increasingly coming into focus (impact investing). In contrast to environmental and social governance, where rating agencies are evaluating the environmental and social risk models of companies, impact investing is a forward looking approach, that wants to make a real world positive environmental and social impact through the business model.
Private and institutional investors have increasingly broad opportunities to use diversified strategies to move market behavior in ESG-compliant directions, create SDG-alignment and embark on the journey to impact investing. The EU with its action plan for sustainable Finance wants to redirect money to green and social investments. Meet all these different approaches at the Sustainable Investment Forum 2022.
We invite you to use the on-site expertise as a compass for your own path in the ESG world and look forward to welcoming you in person on May 10.
