Speaker List

Confirmed Speaker:

🗹 Hugh Gimber (J.P. Morgan) - Guide to the Markets

🗹 Stephen McPhilips (Dentons) SIPP Market Review

Guide to the Markets

Review the factors influencing the investment returns achieved in 2022. Identify whether the inflationary peak has been reached, identify the depth and duration of the probable recession and consider whether this provides sufficient grounds for central banks to 'pivot' towards a lower interest rate peak. Understand whether this will provide a favourable investment landscape for bonds, equities and commodities and the outlook for 2023.

The current SIPP market – an update.

The SIPP market has seen some significant changes in recent years – and, sadly, not all of these have been positive. Due diligence has therefore never been more important. In this seminar, Dentons’ Technical Sales Director, Stephen McPhillips, will look at how the SIPP market is being shaped by court cases and provider failures and he’ll provide important pointers for advisers to follow when reviewing and selecting SIPP providers. He’ll also demonstrate, through client case studies, what a client journey might look like in the event of a change of provider being required.”
