W&F Issue 10 2018

www.wealthandfinance-news.com 2 Wealth & Finance International - Issue 10 - 2018 6 16 24 Editor’s Comment Welcome to the tenth issue of Wealth & Finance International Magazine, which is dedicated to providing fund managers, institutional and private investors with the very latest industry news in the traditional and alternative investment landscapes. This month’s issue looks towards the future, as we explore the ways that technology will shape the investment and finance landscapes. In many ways, the investment industry has undergone a schism, dividing the market in two: on one side, the traditionalists, who advocate for human-driven expertise and management. On the other, the futurists, who believe that the future of finance lies in AI, algorithms and machine learning. On the side of the traditionalists, Compass Invest trust in their experienced asset managers to forge investment strategies that fulfil their client’s long- term wealth management goals. They believe that the human element that drives their success acts to differentiate themselves from a sector that has become reliant on technology. We spoke to the firm’s Chief Investment Officer, Dragomir Velikov, and Executive Director, Ivaylo Angarski, to find out more. On the other side of the spectrum, A&C Legal are a pioneering law firm working tirelessly to set a new standard for legal practices around the world to follow. Adriana Posada, A&C Legal’s Founder, Partner and Director, takes some time out of her busy schedule to talk to Wealth & Finance about her work towards the empowerment of women, corporate responsibility and the incorporation of green practices. At Wealth & Finance Magazine, we sincerely hope that you enjoy reading this month’s issue and look forward to hearing from you. Laura Brookes, Editor [email protected] AI Global Media, Ltd.
