In this uncertain environment what are the investment opportunities for the second half of 2023? In our web conference, Commerzbank's Chief Investment Officer will share his market outlook, along with top international investment experts who will give their assessments on major asset classes.
Exclusively for institutional and professional investors from Europe.

Start of event
The peak in central banks’ key interest rates is still ahead of us and recession fears are mounting, yet equity markets are climbing to new highs (or have enjoyed a very powerful first half of 2023). Are monetary indicators losing their explanatory power given still robust labor markets and a strong service sector following the most aggressive tightening cycle in 40 years? Or has the new Artificial Intelligence megatrend the power to superpose the cyclical headwinds?
Investing in high-quality companies with a strong economic moat, solid finances and attractive valuations, investors can benefit from steady compounding returns over the long term. These companies are essential to thrive in this volatile market. In his presentation, Gabriele Susinno will discuss why wealth compounders are more important than ever and how they can provide a reliable pathway to success in today's market environment.
