CFA Society Los Angeles is pleased to have legendary investment professional Howard Marks, CFA CIC, join us on Tuesday, December 17th for a special luncheon presentation and moderated Q&A.
Howard is Chairman and Cofounder of Oaktree Capital Management, a Los Angeles-based investment firm with seventy-five billion dollars under management. He holds a bachelor's degree in finance from the Wharton School and an MBA in accounting and marketing from the University of Chicago.
His book, The Most Important Thing Illuminated: Uncommon Sense for the Thoughtful Investor, according to Amazon, “….distilled the wisdom of Marks’ celebrated client memos into a single volume, making his time-tested investing philosophy available to general readers for the first time.”
Mr. Marks will make a relatively brief presentation then move to a more interactive exchange of ideas with attendees. His remarks will touch upon the following topics:
· A retrospective on his career in our industry – (ideas for younger CFAs to use in planning for their future)
· What has changed and what has not changed over his career - (why it matters)
· Long Term Lessons for Investment Success – (ideas to improve performance)
The presentation will be followed by a moderated Q&A.
We invite you to submit questions in advance of this program to info@cfala.org. Questions can also be submitted to the moderator during the event.
