Marquette Speaking at Alternatives Seminar 5/26

May 25, 2016

On Thursday, May 26, Kelli Schrade, director of manager research, will speak on a panel at the Alternative Manager Breakfast Seminar held by eVestment and the Hedge Fund Association at the Omni Chicago Hotel. The panel will explore how hedge funds and fund of funds can successfully engage with investment consultants and institutional investors.

The panel will cover topics such as:

• A quick review of asset flow trends
• Interactive discussion and insight from Kelli, specifically on how consultants approach manager selection and what they look for at each stage
• New methods to stand out in a crowded market and how to work more effectively when interacting with institutional investors
