Globalization Drives Advisors to Seek Opportunities Abroad

SARASOTA, March 31, 2008 -- InterShow, the world's leading producer of investment trade shows and cruises, will host nearly 1,000 financial advisors for The 4th Annual Financial Advisor Symposium, April 16-18, 2008, at the Mandalay Resort & Casino. Due to the growing interconnection of the world’s financial markets, the focus of this year’s Symposium is An Essential Diversification: “Globalization” What It Means to You and Your Clients. Education throughout the Symposium aims to help advisors succeed in the fiercely competitive financial advisory industry and understand how the new era of global interdependence presents advisors and their clients with enormous opportunities for diversification, profit, and also risk.

The Symposium will offer FAs the opportunity to meet face-to-face with some of the leading marketing gurus, consultants, and other advisors as they discuss the outlook for the global fixed-income market, share their strategies for investing client assets globally through ETFs and their best ideas for acquiring and retaining clients. Not only will attendees have the opportunity to hear varying viewpoints on markets around the world and where the best places are to invest in now, they’ll also have the chance to interact with representatives from over 80 of the top firms servicing the financial advisor industry all under one roof.
