NEXTGEN SINGAPORE
Career Perspectives of Non-Investment Executives
|
|
Non-investment functions within the financial industry are increasingly more important, especially post-GFC. Regulators and investors are conducting detailed due diligence to fully understand how an investment firm operates, from front to back.
More women are assuming senior leadership roles within investment firms: managing finance, risk, operations, treasury, compliance and other areas.
Do you seek these positions? Gain insights from senior female executives, as they recount their rise to the top, how they developed their leadership style and other lessons learned.
Bring your questions on how to succeed in non-investment roles in the industry. Share your ideas with peers as you network over lunch before the event.
