Why You Should Attend

Why You Should Attend

Real Return: The Institutional Summit on Real Asset Investment
A world-class forum that allows senior investment decision-makers and their advisors to meet, network and do business with their peers.

Turbulent markets call for strong, proactive practices, and rising inflation threatens to undermine the performance of formerly profitable investments. Investors must revitalize their strategies to achieve solid returns in the year to come, and Real Assets provide security in the midst of volatile conditions.

Join top executives in real estate, infrastructure, commodities, TIPS, timber and other real assets, as they examine inflation-fighting investment strategies that achieve long-term, stable returns in any economy.

Specifically, you will:

  • Maximize profits by identifying the most lucrative areas of global investment in real estate, infrastructure and commodities
  • Determine the optimal asset mix for your portfolio by evaluating each specific real asset class as it relate to your investment strategy
  • Implement strategies that deliver by examining the rationale for investing directly versus indirectly, and in private versus public markets
  • Improve liquidity and unlock asset value by analyzing diverse capital management vehicles
  • Spark and strengthen valuable business connections by networking with leading domestic and international investors and managers
US market turbulence has filtered throughout the global economy, don’t allow your returns to be compromised as a result. Don’t miss this valuable opportunity to learn from the leaders across asset industries and maximize returns with your real asset portfolio.

I look forward to meeting you in D.C. in July!

Best Regards,

Lauren Weiniger
Conference Director IIR

“Inflation is back. After several years of relative stability, a wave of rising prices is washing over the world economy.”

“at least $4 billion could enter [the timber] market over the next five years because public pensions – along with foundations and endowments – either plan to enter the market or increase their current small timber allocations.”
