The US Federal Reserve's stance is more aggressive than market expectations. With the news of a pause in interest rate hikes in June, many investors believe that the rate hike cycle is likely to change. If you want to seize the opportunity, you need to start planning for the asset allocation after the rate hike cycle.

WeLab Bank understands your desire on planning ahead, so we have partnered with three top global investment companies, including J.P. Morgan Asset Management, PIMCO Investment Management and Allianz Global Investor, to bring you a seminar on global economic analysis and investment trends for second half year on the 20th of this month. Investment experts will analyze how to strategically deploy in global bonds, stock sectors, and asset allocation, taking advantage of interest rate cycles and capturing attractive investment opportunities.

In addition to experts sharing sessions, there will also be a live Q&A session where experts will help addressing your questions and concerns. Attendees will receive an exquisite gift. Light refreshments.

The seats are limited, register now!

*If the number of registrations exceeds the limit, the seats will be allocated by drawing lots. Successful applicants will be received a confirmation email on or before 18 July 2023.
