Taking place at the world renowned Honourable Artillery Company in the heart of London’s financial district, the game is preceded by the sixth annual ETF Outlook Investment Conference hosted by Grant Thornton.
The conference will bring together prominent investment and ETF industry specialists to discuss the major investment themes set to face investors in 2018, including the trends in the European ETF market and the rise of cryptocurrency.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the, CISI as hosts, London Skolars and Wigan Warriors for making it a fun day, and the other sponsors for whom without their support the event could not have taken place.”
