Greg Leonberger Speaking at Pensions & Investments Chicago Fixed Income & Credit Conference 9/24

June 20, 2024

On Tuesday, September 24, Greg Leonberger, FSA, EA, MAAA, FCA will be speaking at Pensions & Investments’ (P&I) Chicago Fixed Income & Credit conference.

Greg will be moderating a panel entitled, “What Does Diversification Look Like in the New Era?” described as follows: In a world where yields are higher and investors can access an array of fixed-income options with appealing risk-return profiles, it seems that diversification would come much easier. However, that’s not always clear cut. As more money has piled into safe haven assets, does that present concentration risk? Are there certain sectors or geographies in, say, emerging markets, that can provide uncorrelated returns? How should investors approach sectors such as CLOs, MBS, and ABS, given dispersion in issuer performance and credit fundamentals? This panel will discuss the myriad approaches to diversification and the need to remain flexible and avail of tactical opportunities.

P&I’s Fixed Income & Credit series will bring together a pan-institutional group of asset allocators to discuss a range of approaches to fixed income across the public and private markets. Whether for income generation, defensive or, increasingly, return allocations, asset owners and industry providers will share their timely and forward-focused strategies.
