MACRO: WHERE NEXT IN THIS CRISIS-STRICKEN ECONOMIC CYCLE?
2012 has so far seen a much brighter note returning to global markets after the gloom of 2011. But markets remain in the grip
of macro and political events – in Europe, the US, China and elsewhere – and high levels of uncertainty remain about economic,
financial and geo-political prospects. A panel of economists and managers will debate the big-picture outlook – and the upside
and downside risks.
HEDGE FUND CEOS: DEALING WITH A WORLD FULL OF CHALLENGES
Macro uncertainty, political interference, regulatory reform, mounting compliance and operational burdens, investor unease
and counterparty risk are all adding to the challenges facing hedge fund CEOs as they steer their firms through these turbulent
waters. How is the industry changing? What will be the next big opportunities and risks? A panel of top CEOs will tackle the big
industry issues.
Coffee break
ARE INVESTORS GETTING WHAT THEY WANT FROM HEDGE FUNDS?
Do investors know what they want from hedge funds? Do managers know what investors want? Are the investors getting
it? How are their needs changing? How well are the interests of managers and investors really aligned? What most annoys,
worries, pleases or excites investors? And what are the key developments and changes that they would most like to see in
hedge funds in the near term?
KEYNOTE SPEAKER: ANDRE ESTEVES, BTG PACTUAL
André Esteves is the chief executive officer of BTG Pactual, member of both the Brazil and global management
committees, and is based in São Paulo. See full biography on page 2.

16.45 REGULATION: THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE DOWNRIGHT STUPID
The financial services world is facing a tidal wave of new regulation in the aftermath of the crisis – and hedge funds are no
exception. The list of new and proposed global regulations is lengthening all the time – and the consequences (whether intended
or unintended) for all managers, investors and counterparties could be deep and far-reaching. What is the purpose and where it
is all leading to?

INVESTORS GOING DIRECT: WHAT ARE THE LESSONS SO FAR?
A second major panel session focusing on the changing hedge fund investor landscape will discuss the experiences of the
growing number of end-investors that are going direct to hedge funds rather than using traditional intermediaries and look
at the continued blurring of lines between consultants and funds of hedge fund groups that are increasingly offering advice on
bespoke investor portfolios.
