PROGRAMME 8:45am 9:10am 9:10am 9:15am 9:15am 9:55am Registration and Coffee Opening Comments Sebastian Enberg, Editor, Asian Private Banker Leaders Conversation Panel 1 Today, independent asset managers/family offices manage in the range of 5% of the region s wealth in Hong Kong and Singapore. Industry leaders predict that this figure will double in time, but also acknowledge that key challenges remain. Notably, the fees for advice model remains a tough sell to clients who are used to receiving free advice, and firms that are unable to charge 100 bps on assets managed must rely on alternative fee structures to generate revenues in a difficult market environment. Add in regulatory uncertainty particularly with regards to the use of retrocession payments and achieving profitability as an independent player is today a tall order. This panel confronts the key hurdles facing IAMs in Asia and asks what concrete steps can be taken to increase their share of the region s AUM in a profitable manner. Moderator: Sebastian Enberg, Editor, Asian Private Banker Conversation catalysts: Anthonia Hui, Chief Executive Officer, AL Wealth Partners Pte Ltd Charlie O Flaherty, Head of Digital Strategy & Distribution, Crossbridge Capital Mandeep Nalwa, Chief Executive Officer, Taurus Wealth Advisors Noor Quek, Founder & CEO, NQ International

Focusing on the key catalysts of change; the GFC, regulation, demographics and the use of technology in distribution, the session stresses the need for the industry to evolve its product proposition and distribution strategy for today s demanding global client set. Calling upon experience of emerging distribution trends from across the world, the workshop will share M&G s experiences from intermediary and client consultations since the GFC, and explain how changing behaviours are drastically changing the traditional manufacturing and consumption of financial products. Moderator: Jonathan Willcocks, Managing Director, Global Head of Retail Sales, M&G Investments 10:35am 11:00am Networking and Coffee

11:00am 11:40am Leaders Conversation Panel 2 IAMs Alternative Edge Lower returns, sustained uncertainty and bouts of turbulence are the new norms of investing in a world where economies are undergoing structural transformation and central banking policies are moving into unchartered territories. Sole dependence on liquid capital markets or plain vanilla long-only instruments will unlikely generate sound returns without taking on excessive risk. By one account, a portfolio in 2004 could generate 4% returns with 85% and 15% allocated to fixed income and equities, respectively. Today, half a portfolio would need to be allocated to equities to achieve the similar gains but with double the volatility. Consequently, global investors are actively allocating to alternatives whether through hedge funds to diversify away from pure long-only exposure, or via private equity. Indeed, the demand for private equity among Asian HNWIs and especially Chinese investors is vigorous as ever. IAMs looking to offset a slowdown in flow trades and to help clients achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns are today seeking out alternative solutions. And with critical mass and truly open architecture platforms, IAMs have both the access and capabilities to create a platform with breadth and independence. This panel explores how IAMs are meeting client demand for alternative strategies, and how clients are reacting to IAMs initiatives in this space relative to the offerings of incumbent global financial players. Moderator: Richard Otsuki, Senior Reporter, Asian Private Banker Conversation catalysts: Ron Lee, Chief Investment Officer, Wealth Management Alliance Leonardo Drago, Chief Investment Officer, AL Wealth Partners Pte Ltd Urs Brutsch, Managing Partner and Founder, HP Wealth Management(s) Pte Ltd Vinit Sarangdhar, Founder & MD, Alpha Quest Yai Sukonthabhund, Partner & CEO, Crossbridge Capital
