Norwich Seminar – Friday 12th July 2013
Investment: Managing Risk in the New World Order
We’ll be running two sessions, one at 9.00 and another at 12.30 – each will qualify for 1 ½ hours of CPD for both Solicitors & Accountants.
Places are limited so please confirm your place at www.chadwicks.co.uk or call me on 01603 251687
Of value to both professional advisers and private clients, our seminars aim to give you a good introductory understanding of issues underpinning some of our more important financial decisions. The tone is relaxed but professional and discussion among the group is encouraged. Richards curiosity & passion makes a potentially humdrum subject engaging and thought provoking.
This month we are focussing on the financial crisis and how it exposed shortcomings in financial risk management. We will look at new approaches that build on the experience of the last few years and introduces behavioural finance as an explanation for some of the problems we have faced.
Starting by looking at how we make decisions, we will use a behavioural approach to explain common investment mistakes and how we can be better prepared to avoid them. We will also look at effective ways of using technical analysis to improve risk/return ratios before considering how we can apply this to reduce downside risk.
By the end of the session you will have a better understanding of your own investment decisions and share our healthy cynicism towards much of the fund management industry’s marketing hype!
We expect each seminar to last around an hour and a half with a further 30 minutes for questions and discussion. Chadwicks are approved by the Solicitors Regulation Authority as accredited CPD providers.
A light lunch or breakfast will be available.
The seminar is free of charge but places are limited.
The seminars are held at our offices where there is ample free parking.
