THE 2023 LATAM FUNDS SUMMIT

“Navigating the future of the fund industry in LatAm”

Amicorp Fund Services is delighted to be hosting its first LatAm Funds Summit, an event that brings together leading figures from the fund industry in Latin America.

This informative two-day event is taking place in Curaçao, the country where Amicorp Group was founded 30 years ago. Not only is the Group celebrating this significant milestone, but this year also saw our Fund Services business listing on the London Stock Exchange, a reflection of our commitment and ambition to grow at a time when demand for fund services is expanding.

The summit is a chance for industry players to share and discover different insights and experiences of the recent trends that have shaped the fund industry and, importantly, those expected to shape the industry in 2024 and beyond. Our focus is on equipping our guests with the insights they need to be successful with their investments, now and in the future.

Our speakers will include Amicorp experts along with several high-profile guest speakers from across the region, covering a wide range of topical issues.

A big thank you to our sponsors:
