MENA Pensions conference in November

ManamaTAKAUD, the specialist provider of savings, investment and pension solutions for the MENA region, yesterday announced that it will hold the second MENA Pensions Conference on November 28, 2017, at the Four Seasons Hotel in Manama, under the patronage of the Central Bank of Bahrain.

The themes of the 2017 Conference will focus on enhancing pension benefit sustainability through Public-Private Partnerships, and saving and investing for the long term. 

“Global experience shows that pensions require multiple pillars—among the government, corporate and individual sectors—to be more sustainable. Building effective local models and institutional frameworks for pensions would be key prerequisites to move in this direction, which is the focus of this conference,” said Ebrahim K. Ebrahim, TAKAUD’s Chief Government Business & Communications Officer.

The Conference brings together representatives of public pension funds and financial institutions in the region, as well as global asset managers and private pension providers, so that all can contribute to the examination of issues and the crystallization of workable solutions.

This year’s conference will also feature an exhibition of participants within the pension ecosystem, including private pension scheme administrators, asset managers, trust providers, Fintech application vendors and related financial services providers.
