Future of Fiduciary Responsibility

May 6, 2011 - PRLog -- The stability of long-expected pension benefits, and the rights and responsibilities of shareholders. With new law and regulations being enacted to define and expand the role of fiduciaries, it is clear that society and the government are now looking to investors to act as private regulators and key agents of change. In light of this emerging role, the need for responsible monitoring and activism has become greater than ever.

In response, Responsible-investor.com and American Conference Institute have come together to bring you the national Summit on the future of fiduciary Responsibility. Through the joint venture between Responsible-investor.com and American Conference Institute, we have developed a research-based, market-driven program that reflects the wants and needs of fiduciaries, trustees, attorneys and compliance specialists. Importantly, the conference is tailored in direct response to the questions and concerns expressed by you and your peers on the most pressing issues that fiduciaries face today. Through the collaboration, we have been able to solicit the input of attorneys, institutional investors, trustees and corporate governance officers in the U.S. and abroad, which has led us to build the premier institutional investor conference examining the evolution of legal rights and responsibilities.

We have brought together the leading chief compliance and legal officers, corporate governance directors, outside counsel and federal judges from across the U.S. and Europe to share information on how to best protect shareholder assets through responsible fiduciary practices. Come gain a comprehensive overview and thorough analysis of the current issues facing institutional investors, best practices in ensuring that value is being created by corporate executives and how to maximize recovery when losses do occur.

Benchmark your strategies, gain crucial knowledge and exchange tactics with the biggest players in the industry. Conference highlights include:

   * Examining the increased responsibility of shareholders to monitor corporate activity and ensure executives are increasing value and avoiding excessive risk
   * A look at Morrison v. NAB and an analysis of the current state of investor rights in light of recent federal court ruling
   * What are the hot topics in corporate governance? Analyze the most pressing issues and best strategic methods for implementing change
