  • The EDHEC ETF Summit programme has been designed to provide investors and industry professionals with the results of our research in the fields of risk management and asset allocation supported by Exchange Traded Funds.

  • The New Challenges for European Institutional Investors Conference will present our latest research results on two key current issues for pension schemes and insurance companies.

  • The State of the Art Institutional Asset Management Master Class will demonstrate to French-speaking investors how to use the most recent tools developed by applied academic research to improve their investment processes.
