For 7 years, The Rights & Responsibilities of Institutional Investors meeting has o.ered objective analysis of the issues facing active owners and provided insightful examination of the vital issues confronting European investors. During those years, the dialog has both deepened and broadened.

We are pleased to announce that the 2012 meeting will endeavor to address both sets of issues facing investors today: ensuring that institutions have the means to exercise their full rights as shareholders and yet also have the information and the tools they need to meet their unique investment objectives. In its simplest form this goal means that we will be o.ering parallel tracks of sessions over the course of this single day meeting, but more importantly it means addressing the full, broad spectrum that pension plans and their managers and advisors are confronting. For example, what are the investment practices and strategic guidelines that will help institutions achieve their investment and risk management objectives while exercising their .duciary duties, including bene.ting from responsible investment practices and active engagement.

In 2012, The Rights & Responsibilities of Institutional Investors, again co-sponsored by Institutional Investor and Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP, will o.er investment, compliance and legal o.cers from European public pension and insurance funds and mutual fund companies the information they require on how to turn principles into sound .duciary and investment practice.
