Event Overview

Event Overview

Welcome to the LIFE Summit on  Managing and Distributing

  TARGET-DATE

    INVESTMENTS

With assets going into target-date funds increasing an average of 25% per quarter, new funds being created to keep up with the quick pace is creating a lack of clarity among plan sponsors evaluating funds. Distinguishing your funds fromeach other and your competitors while gaining shelf space in more retirement plans is the new reality which must be sorted out.

The LIFE Summit on Managing and Distributing Target Date Investments — the only conference spanning the entire value chain, from manufacturers to distributors to advisors — will provide strategies on how to identify the needs of plan sponsors to create new funds, through finding the optimal distribution channels to market your funds to ultimately gaining acceptance from plan sponsors. Throughout this comprehensive 2-day event, you will:

Grasp the state of the defined contribution marketplace and what factors are driving the growth of target-date funds
Stand out from the crowd by implementing innovative and unique fund construction methodologies
Select the optimal glide path that will ensure investors are best prepared for post-retirement life
Optimally compare and contrast target date funds with indexing and benchmarking strategies that actually work

More than 20 leading industry innovators will be on hand to deliver cutting edge presentations discussing how to improve the value chain amid the rapid growth and acceptance of target date funds.

To ensure you’re among them and an additional 100+ practitioners, reserve your place at the LIFE Summit onManaging and Distributing Target Date Investments today.

I look forward to meeting you in June.
Sincerely,

Molly Weprin
