The main event will be our all day Zoom conference on Wednesday 6 October 2021. You can register to attend the Zoom conference below (providing you are an investment professional).
The second event will be an informal drinks reception, in London, on Wednesday 13 October 2021, that we are asking you to ‘register an interest in’ if you would like to attend.
This year’s events are being run in collaboration with our friends at UKSIF.
These events are for financial services professionals only.

We will be holding an informal, social, drinks reception with UKSIF on 13 October to celebrate the end of Good Money Week 2021.
The reception will be held in London, in the Moorgate area.
For logistical reasons (due in no small part to the uncertainty covid is causing) we are asking people to ‘register an interest’, rather than guaranteeing a place just yet.
(We are very much hoping everyone who would like to attend will be able to – but are erring on the side of caution at present!)
