Markets sure are unpredictable. Gain insights from those who have been there and done that as you consider how to navigate the current market and interest rate regime change.
Take note from Hope Pascucci, co-founder of Rose Grove Capital management, and Nancy Zimmerman, co-founder of Bracebridge Capital who will share their battle scars and lessons learned from decades of being on the front lines. Consider how to evaluate risk factors like macro uncertainty and geopolitical unrest, on top of the market’s gyrations, in a conversation led by Christine Farquhar, Global Co-Head of Credit Investment at Cambridge Associates.
