About the 2005 Conference

The 2005 UNSW Investment Management Conference provides a forum for the School of Banking and Finance to showcase the latest research in the field to the Australian investment management industry. In addition, the communication process is very much two-way, which enables industry to actively participate in questions and feedback.

Four main themes will be addressed by the 2005 Conference:
