Morningstar will be holding its annual Investment Conference on 3 May 2012 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Sydney.

2012 will be another year of change and uncertainty. The coming year will bring a presidential election in the United States, continuing turbulence in the Eurozone, and the prospect of slowing Chinese growth.

All of these pose significant challenges to the outlook for investment markets, and to returns from your clients' portfolios.

The Morningstar Investment Conference is a renowned annual event designed specifically to provide Australian financial advisers with unique perspectives on today's most important investment issues.

At this one-day event, you'll hear from and have the opportunity to interact with a range of experts in their fields from both Australia and offshore. They'll address critical topics including:

• the economic and political landscape;
• asset allocation;
• alternative investments;
• fixed interest;
• direct investing, including direct equities and exchange-traded funds;
• International equities
• Australian equities; and
• portfolio construction

Conference reaches out to financial planners, paraplanners, dealer group researchers, consultants, stockbrokers, fund managers, and other investment professionals.

Conference provides an ideal platform for financial planners, dealer group researchers, and fund managers to network with fellow financial services professionals, meet and speak with Morningstar's Fund Research team, and connect with Morningstar adviser clients and thought leaders.
