UK Investment Conference 2024

About the event

The last 12 months has been a period of significant change. At our 2024 Investment Conference we wanted to share our views on the near, medium and long-term trends that are shaping our investment strategies.

Our guest speakers provided their own perspective on current events. Most memorably, ethical hacker Jamie Woodruff provided a mindboggling – and slightly worrying – glimpse into the murky hinterlands of cybersecurity and hacking.

Global technology – mag 7 and key themes

While no one can ignore the ‘magnificent seven’ mega stocks that dominate the market, we see opportunities in data centres, semiconductors and cybersecurity.

Tom Riley – Portfolio Manager
Pauline Llandric – Portfolio Manager 

 

Impact – investing for people and the planet

Responsible investors can do more than simply avoid harm. Impact investing provides the opportunity to contribute to positive change.

Anna Vänäänen - Head of Listed Impact Equity
Tom Atkinson - Portfolio Manager

  

Healthcare – research and innovation

Research and innovation in the healthcare sector is driving the sector. But just as important is investing in better access and availability of new treatments for as wide a population as possible.

Chris Eccles - Portfolio Manager
Catherine Tennyson - Portfolio Manager 

  

Chocolate and charity

Attendees were invited to sample our specially commissioned artisan chocolate from the boutique Land chocolate maker, blended with our own organic, Portuguese olive oil.

And we were also raising money for our chosen charity, Durrell Rewild Carbon. To date, our carbon positive event contributions have planted over 3,300 trees in Atlantic Forest in Brazil as part of their efforts to restore forest corridors and create lifelines for wildlife.
