IFoA: Boost your CPD at the Pensions Conference 2014

Open-access content Wednesday 7th May 2014 — updated 9.20pm, Thursday 2nd April 2020

If you put one date in your continuing professional development (CPD) diary this year, make sure it is for the annual Pensions Conference 2014, 18-20 June at the Radisson Blu Edwardian Heathrow Hotel. There are many reasons to attend this year's conference, which will see leading experts from both within and outside the pensions industry come together to share cutting-edge ideas, encourage 

debate and deepen delegates' knowledge in key areas affecting the pensions industry. 

The conference commences on 18 June with our headline speaker, Sharon Bowles, MEP and chair of the European Parliament's Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee. The first Briton ever to chair the committee, Bowles has been described as the most influential Briton in the development of European Union policy, and also as one of the top 10 most influential regulators in the European Union. She was shortlisted to be governor of the Bank of England in 2012 and was rated by Financial News as being in the top 100 most influential people in European finance in 2013. 

There are also plenty of opportunities to gain CPD and two one-hour Professional Skills training sessions to choose from.
