A Radical Departure from the Norm: Viewing Risk through the Eyes of Clients and Fiduciaries
– Rollinghills Resort Ballroom
The traditional view of risk is through the eyes of mutual fund managers whose goal is to market their
products in a competitive environment. As a result, everything is presented through standardized statistics
for a “level playing field” where the focus of both risk and performance is on making fund manager “look
good” as they “tell their story.” But what about the clients who are the owners of these assets? What does
risk mean to them? Are we giving them the information they need to evaluate the risks that matter to them?
And what about the investment committee members, trustees and board members who have responsibility
for the client’s overall investment program? What are the risks that keep them up at night? Can we help
them be better fiduciaries, while helping clients be better investment consumers by looking at risk from the
client’s perspective. Find out how in this compelling and innovative presentation by a handsome and welltailored thought leader. He’s also a heck of a nice guy! (And so humble…)
6:00 – 9:00
Guest Speaker : Steve Campisi, US Trust

Think Global, Invest Local – Michael Tyler, Vice President - Eastern Bank
Most of our clients are American citizens with economic lives entirely denominated in U.S. dollars.
Why should they care about issues beyond our shores? This presentation will focus on the financial
impact that events and markets overseas have on us at home. How can investment managers
translate global concerns into local portfolios? How can we communicate the need for a global
approach? And how can we measure whether we’re doing a good job of it?
