First Vice Chairman | Fund Finance Association

The Fund Finance Association has organized an exciting lineup of content for the 9th Annual Global Fund Finance Symposium to be held at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami from March 24 – 26. This year’s Symposium promises to be the largest-ever industry conference in Fund Finance.

The Symposium starts with an evening cocktail reception on Sunday, March 24 and ends at noon on Tuesday, March 26. The content for this year’s Symposium was created by the Content Committee, which consists of industry-leading banks and law firms and is co-chaired by Dee Dee Sklar at Wells Fargo and me.

Selected topics we are especially excited about this year include:

  • An intimate fireside chat with Anthony Scaramucci—focusing on The Mooch’s life experiences, brief time in the White House and building his hedge fund company,
  • Can we handle diversity? A candid conversation about unconscious bias, diversity as a business opportunity and how to take action by the Women in Fund Finance,
  • GP Roundtable—an exclusive GP-only session led by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett focusing on the challenges confronting GPs in the fund finance landscape with reporting back to the Industry Panel,
  • Industry, Institutional Limited Partners Association (ILPA) and Regulatory panels—frank discussions around investor concerns in the private capital space, new challenges in the use of fund finance and growing regulatory pressures in lending,
  • A Subscription Finance Debate—a spirited discussion on fund structures, the use of umbrella facilities and the flexibility of credit facilities,
  • Industry-focused dialogues on real assets and private credit, focusing on the rapid growth in these asset classes and the implications for fund finance,
  • Syndication panel—the ins and outs of developing a club vs. wide syndicate for facility distribution,
  • Hybrid and NAV Finance panel—fund financing when a standard subscription facility isn’t enough,
  • Management Company and GP Financing—a discussion on ancillary financing products GPs are using and why,
  • Foreign Exchange panel—a comprehensive discussion led by Wells Fargo on the use of FX and implications for fund finance, and
  • Anatomy of a Subscription Default—From Litigation to Work-Out!  An exciting lineup of the leading legal and banking minds sharing their expertise on what happens when it all goes wrong.

Additionally, for the second year in a row, the FFA Julian Black Industry Award and the FFA Dee Dee Sklar Women in Fund Finance Award will be presented to two leading professionals for their dedication to the fund finance industry. To see the complete Agenda, click here.
