Market turbulence re-emerged with a vengeance through the latter half of 2015 with fund managers once again challenged by the need to carefully pick the strategies that would ride the volatility storm. Coupled with market management, investment managers also saw moves by investors towards a wider area of investment strategies and an ongoing need to manage costs in the formation, domiciling and distribution stages.

The seventh annual Fund Formation, Domiciling & Distribution report brings together leading chief operations, regulation, product development, technology and senior executive officers to debate and explore appropriate strategies to forming new investment structures, picking appropriate domiciles and moving to a distribution campaign with best practice in mind.
