Inside the Code: How Stewardship is Reshaping Investment in New Zealand

Wednesday 6 August, 12:00PM

Webinar

For this webinar we’ll be joined by Jackson Rowland, the Director of the Aotearoa New Zealand Stewardship Code, who'll provide an update on the rapidly evolving stewardship landscape in New Zealand. Since the launch of the Code in 2022, stewardship has now become the most common responsible investment strategy in New Zealand, with managers of majority of NZ’s Assets under Management already signed up to the Code. This is leading to marked changes in the way investors manage risks, and work with the companies they invest in. And these changes mirror global practices, where stewardship continues to be a key part of best practice investor management. This webinar will summarise stewardship both in New Zealand and internationally, and provide an insight into where stewardship is heading in the future, as investors continue to navigate risks and opportunities to preserve long term value.

Investment Market Update and Derivatives

Thursday 7 August

Queenstown

Join us for a Market update with David Kandziora, CFA, CAIA, Chair CFA Society New Zealand and Senior Relationship Manager Russell Investments and Tom Soutter, CFA, Senior Trader at Czarnikow Group. Commodity markets are often associated with futures curves and macro cycles, but value is also created on the ground throughout the supply chain. This session will be a look into the world of physical commodity trading, using dairy as a case study, to explore some practical levers which can be used to manage risk and add value for clients in the real economy. We’ll examine how logistics, storage, arbitrage, and timing form the foundation of an optimised physical deal, and how this foundation can be complemented by tailored derivative overlays to enhance client outcomes.
