From persistent inflation and elevated interest rates to energy security and banking worries, the challenges facing investors in 2023 should not be taken lightly.
The FT’s retail investor event will explore the big issues of the day in more depth and consider how portfolios should be positioned for the months ahead.
Organised by FT Money’s sister publication, Investors’ Chronicle, this in-person event in London on June 15 will bring together experts from across the financial industry, from analysts to fund managers, to share insights and unearth the big trends.
Topics to be discussed include: which industries are best placed to benefit as the world adapts to the era of higher interest rates? How should investors balance allocations to equities, bonds and alternatives? And can the US tech giants bounce back and profit from AI advances?

As property rises up the agenda in light of higher borrowing costs, a panel debate will ask whether the worst is yet to come for real estate, or if worries are now priced in.
Investors’ Chronicle deputy editor Dan Jones will host a discussion on the state of the UK market, quizzing the likes of Liberum head of investment strategy Joachim Klement and TS Lombard chief economist Freya Beamish on the best opportunities.
