Register for Money Fund University
Preparations continue and the agenda is now complete for Crane Data's next "basic training" event, Money Fund University. Our seventh annual MFU will be held at the Westin Jersey City Newport, Jersey City, NJ, January 19-20, 2017. Crane's Money Fund University is designed for those new to the money market fund industry or those in need of a concentrated refresher on the basics. The event also focuses on hot topics like money market regulations, money fund alternatives, offshore markets, and other recent industry trends. The affordable ($500) educational conference (see the latest agenda here or e-mail us to request our brochure) features a faculty of the money fund industry's top lawyers, strategists, and portfolio managers. Money Fund University offers attendees a 2-day course on money market mutual funds, educating attendees on the history of money funds, the Fed, interest rates, ratings, rankings, money market instruments such as commercial paper, CDs and repo, plus portfolio construction and credit analysis. At our Jersey City event, we will also take a look at some remaining issues involving regulations, and we'll have a mini "Bond Fund University" segment on ultra-short bond funds. Crane Data also continues to work on a preliminary agenda and plans for its new Bond Fund Symposium (March 23-24, 2017, at the Boston Hyatt Regency), and our annual "big show," Money Fund Symposium, will be held June 21-23, 2017, at the Atlanta Hyatt Regency.
