“Just a short note to say thank you for the kind invite to attend today’s Funds Forum event. As always, this event was extremely well organised, the content and speakers were superb. Congratulations to all involved.”
“Thanks so much for the invitation to your Funds Forum yesterday. I am so disappointed to have had to leave early but I got a lot from the sessions I was at (and have shared with my own teams since – the discussion on costs and active/passive resonated in particular) and I know I had other BNYM colleagues who were able to stay for the later sessions.”
