Emirates Bank hosts successful investment seminar to its Al Shaheen priority bank customers

The seminar was a major success with more than a hundred and twenty affluent clients attending the event.

The aim of this seminar was to give Al Shaheen Club customers a better understanding of investment and to provide them with more information on the global investment outlook and economic trends.

Mr. Louis Scotto, General Manager Retail Banking Emirates Bank, welcomed the guests and introduced the event. "Tonight is a very special night for Al Shaheen Club as we are hosting one of the leading investment experts, our guest speaker Mr. Simon Brewer, whom we are honored to have. With the help of Morgan Stanley, Al Shaheen Club is meeting one of its responsibilities towards its customers and that is offering world class investment solutions."

In his presentation, Mr. Brewer, addressed the investor's concerns of diversification and current global market climate by focusing on industry considerations and the key challenges to global investors, the current climate, clouds on the horizon and ideas and opportunities ahead.

Emirates Bank also took the opportunity to officially promote the Emirates Bank portfolios, which were softly launched in May this year. Mr. Brewer and his team at Morgan Stanley Private Wealth Management are the investment advisors to these portfolios. The tailor-made multi-manager portfolio solutions, available via the Emirates Bank Al Shaheen Club, offer diversification across multiple asset classes. As global markets become more volatile, reducing risk and preserving capital has become increasingly important. One proven way of improving the risk and reward characteristics of a portfolio is through diversification. The four portfolios available are Emirates Bank Cash Plus Portfolio, Emirates Bank Conservative Managed Portfolio, Emirates Bank Balanced Managed Portfolio and Emirates Bank Active Managed Portfolio.
