The Morgan Stanley Investment Management Virtual Institute 2021 conference provided a timely opportunity for institutional asset owners and our global investment experts to engage on a number of front-of-mind topics and themes in the current pandemic-impacted economic and investment environment. Topics covered included China following the regulatory reset, why U.S. inflation may overshoot, evolving opportunities in sustainable investing, post-crisis alpha opportunities in alternative investments, growth paths for emerging markets and how investors can generate returns in today’s fixed income markets.  On this page are select write-ups of some of the sessions.
