As always, every issue we endeavour to provide fund managers, institutional and private investors with the very latest industry news in the traditional and alternative investment spheres. It’s been an odd couple of weeks. Following a terrible (to put it lightly) few days for global stock markets, the last 24 hours has seen a dramatic rallying turnaround. While we’re probably not at all out of hot water when it comes to the economic impact of COVID-19, recovery in any form is certainly a pleasant sight. But, as always, we step gingerly onward, wary of further disruption. Ultimately, uncertainty and risk are just a natural part of the wealth and finance landscape. Saying that, this quarter’s edition features companies who combat uncertainty through next-level preparedness, employing technology in new ways to cover all basis. From the development of true AI, to funds that beat all expectations, this issue focuses on excellence that thrives despite greater difficulty. Here at Wealth & Finance we sincerely hope that you enjoy reading this issue and, as always, we look forward to hearing from you.
