Course description

Investment Management School
Capital markets are increasingly complex to assess. Investment management has turned into uncertainty management. This requires an entrepreneurial mindset to assess markets better than others. At the same time our industry has been mandated by society to redeploy capital towards making SDGs achievable, by reducing greenhouse gas emissions (net zero) in a socially and economically empowering way. This mandate meets industry usances of slow adaptability, defensive decision-making, and low-risk literacy. A behaviorally optimized investment process is the way to go.
This Investment Management School is the most intense 2-day training in designing a behaviorally optimized investment process. Participants will work on configuring an optimal environment to make the most rational investment decisions.
We are living in an age of hyper-complexity & hyper-competition. Learning to master the mindset while integrating AI in an ethical and sustainable way, is key for meeting investment objectives today. In short, investment professionals need to optimise all influencing factors to their advantage, just like professional athletes do.
