The recent collapse of global financial markets underscored many flaws in our industry but perhaps none more so than the need to ensure investors are better protected.
Please join us on January 13, 2011 when Margaret Franklin, CFA, chair of the Board of Governors of CFA Institute and President and CEO of Kinsale Private Wealth, will discuss what steps investors, regulators, government and industry participants should be taking to enhance investor protections. Ultimately, Ms. Franklin will make the case that Canada’s track record of holding rogue advisors accountable is detrimental not only to investors but Canada’s capital markets as a whole.
Ms. Franklin’s perspective, as chair of one of the world’s largest association of investment professionals, will be thought-provoking and insightful, and will almost certainly get people talking.
Margaret Franklin, CFA, is chair of the Board of Governors of CFA Institute, the global association for investment professionals that administers the CFA program worldwide and advocates for high standards of practice within the global investment industry.
