We
would like to personally invite
you to attend the next meeting
of the Conference of Fund Leaders:
March 1, 2010, from 10:00
am - 2:00 pm. The meeting
will
take place at the Loews Madison,
1177 15th Street NW, Washington,
DC. The Conference of
Fund Leaders, an initiative
co-sponsored by the Forum and
the
Yale
School of Management's Millstein
Center, brings together fund
independent chairs and leads
to explore leadership issues
in a collegial and informal
format.
This
meeting will explore the unique
role of mutual fund chairs and
leads in organizing appropriate
oversight of risk, particularly
enterprise risk. We will
also
discuss how fund chairs and
leads best identify and obtain
satisfactory resolution of problems
in the contract renewal process.
Should
the Supreme Court issue an opinion
in the Jones case, the Conference
will explore the impact of the
opinion on fund boards.
We
would be delighted if you could
be part of this important opportunity
to discuss the unique issues
confronting leaders of today's
mutual fund boards.
Sincerely,

|
John Hill
