Sovereign Wealth Management

An international series of conferences from Central Banking Publications

An Introduction to Sovereign Wealth Management

The management of sovereign wealth is not a new concept, as long as there have been sovereign entities there have been managers to use their wealth for the good of its citizenship.

Yet it is in recent times with the proliferation of the so-called ‘sovereign wealth fund’ that debates around the management of national wealth has really reached the public consciousness.

What can Central Banking Publications add to current debates?

As an independent financial commentator, it is our mission to facilitate informed, co-operative and productive discussion between the key stakeholders through a series of high-level summits, conferences, seminars and meetings.
