| By Sara Rich |

At this year’s PortfolioConstruction Conference (August 27-28), UK-based Jens Peers, head of the eco investment team at KBC Asset Management, will highlight how investors might access eco investment themes and how they could fit into an overall investment portfolio.

He’ll focus on those companies that are well positioned to benefit from the macroeconomic changes taking place, with stock stories highlighting which companies and technologies are breaking ground in these areas and how they fit into portfolio construction.

He’ll discuss the potential of the water, alternative energy and climate change themes, and highlight what future development will drive company profits in this space.

Research papers from the PortfolioConstruction Conference will be available in the August edition of Money Managements Technical Adviser.

Now in its seventh year, the PortfolioConstruction Conference has earned a reputation as the investment conference of the year. To register, go to http://www.PortfolioConstruction.com.au/Conference
