Fearless Leadership Symposium to be held Oct 6-7
Nicsa’s FLS was the first DEI-focused conference in the global asset management community. Join us for the second-annual FLS at the Boston Marriott Long Wharf where an industry that has quickly come to terms with the “WHY?” of DEI gets down to brass tacks on the “HOW?” part of the equation. I am personally very proud of the work being done by our tireless committees and encourage you and your colleagues to join us as we continue this much needed industry dialogue.
General Membership Meeting happening Nov 2-3
Our 2022 GMM will take place at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel this fall. The event will feature two days of educational sessions and cover a wide array of strategic business topics. I hope that you come to connect with industry peers from all facets of asset management and find meaningful takeaways for your business planning.

Nicsa is turning 60!
Thanks for making our 60th anniversary something to be proud of. As an association, we have faced myriad market events and environments over the decades; together, we have adapted and provided a platform for progress. Our members have always put investors first, with a focus on best practices for the best outcomes. I am honored to be part of this journey and ask that you please be on the lookout for some special anniversary campaigns. I hope they not only evoke some nostalgia, but boost our resolve to bring more peers and newer colleagues into what I believe is the best association in the industry for meaningful relationship building and problem solving.
