QFCA announces Doha will host Flagship Investment Forum
"QFC becomes inaugural hosts of premier GCC event for the asset management industry".ICBI launched FundForum Middle East in 2007 as a regional partner to the FundForum International conference, which has been running for 20 years. Over the last four years the summit and convention has attracted leading financial and investment experts from firms operating across the GCC. It is the premier event for the asset management industry.
Shashank Srivastava, acting CEO of the QFC Authority commented: "The MENA Investment Management Forum moving to Doha is further recognition that Qatar is becoming the regional centre for the asset management industry. Supported by one of the fastest growing economies in the world, high levels of institutional and retail wealth and an increasing breadth and depth of investible assets, Qatar is able to provide investment managers emerging market returns at developed market risk levels."
"The recent Global Financial Centres Index, produced by the Z/Yen Group, shows that Qatar continues to increase its ranking as a financial centre, at a time when other regional markets have declined. Asset managers are looking to do business across the region, and the Middle East Investment Management Forum in Qatar will provide a great platform for them to grow their business." added Mr Srivastava.
