   Technology in Investment Management – An investment team’s success managing institutional assets is only as good as the information it has about the entirety of its portfolio.  How are pension funds, endowments and foundations using technology to get clarity—and actionable insights—about their portfolios across asset classes, concentration risk, collateral management, cash management, securities lending and a host of other areas to capture more alpha and control costs? Panelists will discuss the tools and opportunities available and how to take advantage of them.
