Worldwide Debt – Challenge or Threat?

The financial crisis was created by a debt bubble. But how should we define debt, and how will the present increase in private and public debt impact economic growth and stability in the short and long run? How should investors position themselves, are fixed income markets pricing credit risk correctly, and could historically “cheap money” trigger ​a new credit crisis? Where does it end: quantitative easing, negative yields, or more inflation?
We have invited three experts to shed some light on these crucial questions.​​

Open Network Meeting

Please, note that this event is an open network meeting arranged by the Asset Allocation Network Committee. Therefore the network activities at the end of the day is for Asset Allocation Network Members only.
