The event focuses on business and relationship challenges specific to wealth management for the wealthiest clients around the world. As described by the organisation, the SFI’s retreat “functions as a platform for senior executives who want to better understand how to shape their businesses and to test their views against research findings and the experience of their peers”.

"The current environment for banking remains challenging, requiring new answers to an increasing number of questions, and a search for innovation. That is why this year’s retreat looks at where to find solutions 'beyond wealth management'.”

The four-day event will cover three topics:

How to best engineer wealth management in an environment of change?

How to address the wealth dislocation from the West to the East?

How to engage with the wealthiest clients at the highest level of banks?
