Whakapiki i te Putea – Raising Maori Investment Capability Conference to be held in Tauranga 11 – 13 February 2020. The programme involves speakers with expertise in all facets of investment activity and is designed to put in front of attendees a full range of investment options. One important reason for the conference is the continuing downward trend in bank interest rates. Because so many of our organisations rely on term deposits as a default investment strategy – what can be put in front of those people with investment responsibility on behalf of their organisations.

11 – 13 February 2020

Waikato University, Tauranga
