Investment funds and pensions scandal? Fund management risk and opportunity. Rates of return for investors, investment banking future, regulation and markets. Retail funds performance. Conference keynote speaker.

http://www.globalchange.com Many fund managers don't recommend own retail investment funds to family and do not chose to invest own wealth in own funds. Future scandal in fund management? Risk management keynote conference speaker Dr Patrick Dixon addressing 100s of leading fund managers. Market confidence and investment fund misselling? Spitzer inquiry into financial services integrity, sales commissions, agents and distribution. Real investment returns low in many actively managed funds compared to tracker funds. Management charges often wipe out gains and teams move between companies so another reason why performance varies even in same company.

Does that mean Asset Management job opportunity wont grow? It is important to me since I am a Finance student in college.

Job opportunities will be there in asset management but expect remuneration to be based on last 3 years not 12 months.

Well done you. I am just pointing out that the majority of fund managers of retail equity based funds do not seem to be recommending their own products to their own friends and family - based on my informal surveys lecturing over the last 5 years to managers controlling many billions of dollars of assets.

Funds managers do not recommend their products to their mothers? What is that? oh my god? it means there is no real ethics in this business? Somebody please clarify this point. Im confused.

With the US bailout bill just passed this area of equity investment looks a bit stronger but it still is in a precarious position.
