Barbara Tannock, Head of Capital G Private Banking said:
With Mr. Forbes as keynote speaker, it brings an interesting dynamic to the conversation — the same forces that were blamed for the collapse of global markets are being relied on to provide recovery. His delivery promises to be very thought provoking, certainly relevant and one from which our clients and partners will draw great value.
We take seriously our positioning as an integrated wealth management innovator and a facilitator of dialogue on the issues impacting Bermuda’s private clients. Mr. Forbes’ acceptance of our invitation is true testament to that.
