| Upcoming Events: "Global ARC" |
If you are planning to be near Boston in late October, we recommend you check out the 6th Annual Global Absolute Return Congress. We consider it to be one of the best events for institutional investors active in alternative investments of any ilk (hedge funds, provate equity, commodities, real estate etc.).
Many of the experts we cite at AllAboutAlpah.com will also bere there including: Myron Scholes, Andrew Lo, Sanford Grossman and Richard Taffler.
Hope to see you there. |
