Why Attend:
On 24 May 2023, the European Commission adopted a package known as the Retail Investment Package with a view to fostering retail investor information transparency and ensuring that investment decisions are best for investors.
The intention is to empower retail investors to increase their ability to make investment decisions that are aligned with their needs and preferences, ensuring that they are treated fairly and are duly protected. This will enhance trust and confidence , thereby increasing retail investor participation.
The package also deals with clarity in communication and the prevention of misleading information with the main intention being that of mitigating potential conflicts of interest for advisers and increase retail investments value for money.
This workshop will help investment professionals guide potential investors make appropriate investment decisions that are aligned with their needs and preferences.
