Briefing, December 16, 2021

 

We kicked off our Fall 2021 SME Forum with a look at the results of our collaborative research survey, Lessons From The Lockdown, conducted with Ignites/Money Media this past Fall.  Our opening panel discussion, led by Loren Fox of Money-Media with Ken Burd of Principal, Austin Lewis of Janus Henderson Investments, and Abhijeet Dalvi at Natixis helped our attendees gain some additional perspective on the findings of the research.  You can find that video, the notes from the session, along with a separate report all on our member website.
