REGISTRATION BEGINS at 11:30 a.m.

Following last year's multi-billion dollar mergers, the wealth management business remains at the forefront of changes sweeping the asset management industry. Current competitors have been consolidating to achieve greater economies of scale, faced with pressure on fees and rising compliance costs. New market entrants, meanwhile, enticed by the "stickiness" of client assets and the burgeoning wealth of baby boomer retirees, have ratcheted up the competition. And at the feet of the asset-manager giants now dance a host of new boutique firms offering to manage an open platform of external money managers. To help make sense of the changing dynamic, Ms. Nesvold will offer a timely look at trends, challenges, and opportunities in wealth management and the recent convergence of the alternative players and their bid to gain entry into this space.

Speaker: Elizabeth Nesvold
Ms. Nesvold is the managing partner of M&A advisory firm Silver Lane Advisors in New York and a frequent speaker at industry conferences. Prior to founding Silver Lane, Ms. Nesvold was a managing director and partner at Berkshire Capital, co-founding the firm's wealth management practice in 1998 and leading the initiative until her departure. During her 17 year career, Liz has advised on approximately 125 completed merger, acquisition, valuation and strategic advisory assignments for a variety of clients including national and local trust companies, multi-family offices, investment counselors, financial planners, investment consultants, institutional and alternative managers.

Liz is also a frequent speaker at industry conferences and seminars, and has authored several articles, including How to Make Money in Wealth Management, Trust & Estates Magazine, and How to Sell the Family Business (without Losing Your Sanity), Private Wealth Management. Liz earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science with a minor in Economics from Binghamton University and an MBA in Finance, with high honors, from Fordham University Graduate School of Business.
