PANEL SESSION
Moderated by Sky Tg24's TV news anchor Vittorio Eboli, it addressed some of the hot-test topics for Italy’s fund industry, ranging from the current regulatory changes on the institutional space to the challenge of finding alternatives at a time when yields on “safe assets” such as government bonds is among the foremost areas of dis-cussion. Panelists agreed that regulatory evolution has been recently the major driver of change to the industry.
The discussion ranged from an overview on the asset class to the suitability of liquid and illiquid alternatives depending on the investors' goals and environment.
