Event overview

Equity markets in 2024 have reached record highs, though not without a few bumps along the way. Investor sentiment is generally more optimistic than at this time last year, but several concerns remain. Geopolitical risks continue to simmer, and the wildly unpredictable Donald Trump has just been returned to the White House. While interest rates and inflation appear to be on a downward trajectory, false starts have kept markets on edge.

• David Bassanese, Betashares Chief Economist, will provide his economic outlook, sharing his insights on ‘three things to celebrate this year’.
• Betashares Investment Strategy and Research team will present key strategies to help you invest with confidence in 2025. Topics will include the importance of diversification, sticking to your investment plan, and overcoming common investor biases.
• Guest speaker from the ASX will provide valuable insights into the evolution of investment markets and how investor behaviour is changing in response to current trends.
• An update from Betashares: Learn about exciting developments within the Betashares business, including our investing platform, Betashares Direct.

Enjoy networking with other like-minded investors. The event will commence at 5pm with a networking function. Presentations will take place from 5.30pm, followed by drinks and canapes to end the evening.
