Every
year
Morningstar
Investment
Conference
UK
(MICUK)
attracts
a
faithful
influx
of
curious
delegates
who
join
us
in
the
Royal
Lancaster
Hotel
on
Hyde
Park
for
a
full
day
of
investing
insight,
regulatory
opinion,
and
real-world
inspiration
from
the
best
speakers
on
the
circuit.
MICUK
is
our
opportunity
to
present
the
very
best
in
new
investment
thinking,
trend
outlooks,
and
fund
management
expertise
to
our
audience
of
asset
owners
and
financial
advisers.
If
you
run
money,
or
help
to
run
money,
we
want
to
see
you
there.
What
Have
You
Got
Planned
for
This
Year?
This
year’s
conference
is
different,
however,
and
for
two
reasons.
Firstly,
in
a
change
to
the
standard
format
of
the
last
two
years,
the
event
is
taking
place
in
May
rather
than
July.
That
gives
us
more
than
enough
of
a
head
start
to
discuss
the
two
big
events
that
will
define
politics
at
home
and
abroad
in
2024
–
both
elections!
But
the
second
reason
is
even
more
exciting.
We
Have
a
Great
Keynote
I
can
reveal
our
keynote
speaker
for
the
day
is
none
other
than
Emily
Maitlis,
the
former
BBC
Newsnight
anchor
whose
central
role
in
the
interview
given
by
Prince
Andrew
in
2019
is
now
being
dramatised
by
Netflix.
But
that
is
by
no
means
her
only
achievement.
Emily
has
been
a
familar
face
to
UK
audiences
for
over
two
decades,
and
her
book Airhead:
The
Imperfect
Art
of
Making
News
has
attracted
five-star
reviews
and
almost-unanimous
praise.
In
her
remarks
to
the
conference,
Emily
will
reveal
something
of
what
it
means
to
be
a
journalist
in
2024
and
reflect
on
the
stories
that
propelled
her
to
the
very
top
of
the
broadcast
journalism
world.
With
exciting
change,
however,
there
is
also
some
continuity.
Those
who
attended
last
year’s
MICUK
may
well
remember
that
last
year,
we
donated
the
profits
from
pre-sale
tickets
to
NSPCC,
the
UK’s
largest
child
protection
charity,
whose
statutory
powers
make
it
a
unique
player
in
the
fight
against
child
neglect,
sexual
abuse,
and
youth
suicide.
Dare
I
mention
I
ran
the
marathon
for
this
charity
in
2023
and
it
was
among
my
most
ever
fulfilling
challenges.
In
2024,
our
presale
profits
will
once
more
go
to
NSPCC.
Who
Will
be
at
MICUK?
We
carefully
pick
our
sponsors,
and
there’s
no
pay-to-play
deals
going
on
behind
the
scenes.
That
means
the
content
you
hear
and
see
is
carefully
curated
to
your
needs.
Expect
conviction-led
fund
managers,
opinionated
analysis,
and,
of
course,
plenty
of
other
advisers
like
you
to
network
with.
There
will
also
be
a
host
of
Morningstar’s
key
spokespeople,
including
Mike
Coop,
Lindsey
Stewart,
Monica
Calay,
and
my
Morningstar
UK
editorial
colleagues
James
Gard,
Sunniva
Kolostyak,
and
Chris
Johnson.
We’ll
be
there
to
steer
the
discussion,
and
answer
any
burning
questions
you
may
have
on
the
conference
floor
itself.
What
Else
is
Going
on?
As
with
any
MICUK,
you
can
expect
a
treasure
trove
of
presentations
on
the
big
talking
points
of
the
day.
But
the
day
also
presents
you
with
the
chance
to
hear
some
pretty
interesting
perspectives
and
ask
some
pressing
questions.
We’ll
have
content
on
everything
from
China,
bonds,
and
the
US,
to
the
success
strategies
financial
advisers
can
incorporate
into
their
day-to-day
practice.
Just
like
last
year,
I’m
pleased
to
say
our
adviser
delegates
will
get
another
update
from
the
Financial
Conduct
Authority
(FCA).
As
you
know,
the
FCA
hasn’t
always
deemed
fit
to
appear
at
these
kinds
of
events,
so
it’s
an
enormous
privilege
to
be
able
to
hear
from
a
key
spokesperson
on
its
enforcement
of
the
Consumer
Duty
rules.
We’ll
also
hear
from
Morningstar
Wealth
president
Daniel
Needham
on
the
future
of
wealth.
And,
naturally,
we
wouldn’t
be
doing
justice
to
the
fixed
income
rotation
without
a
session
on
bonds
too.
Do
You
Have
any
Other
Tricks
up
Your
Sleeve?
Yes!
We
have
one
more
very
exciting
speaker
to
be
confirmed
soon.
All
in
all,
this
is
a
must-see
event
with
a
must-see
cast
of
participants.
