We are pleased to invite you to the CIO Global Investment Outlook – Mid Year Update Webinar on 14th July, 2021. Our CIO and his team started the year with optimism, following their theme for 2021: “Investing in the age of Magic Money”. In the meantime, stock markets around the world have printed new records, boosted by massive fiscal and monetary stimulus. Have we already fully priced-in the recovery? Is inflation back? Are crypto assets and “meme stocks” the new bubble? Our CIO and his team will be delighted to share their answers and updated views with you.
