Newport, RI – Opal Financial Group is pleased to present the highly anticipated Public Funds Summit, an annual conference dedicated to addressing critical issues and fostering investment success for senior public pension fund officers and trustees in the new millennium. The event will take place from July 10-12, 2023 and promises to provide a platform for meaningful discussions, education, and idea exchange among esteemed members of the public sector.

The program encompasses a wide range of topics that are of particular relevance to public pension funds. Discussions will revolve around surplus returns and their impact on employee benefit plans, as well as the selection and evaluation processes for investment managers. Additionally, the conference will delve into legal issues facing pension plans, ethical regulations, and the importance of ongoing education for plan sponsors and fiduciaries.

“At Opal Financial Group, we recognize the crucial role that public pension funds play in securing the financial future of beneficiaries,” said Dan Meador, Head of Production & Business Development at Opal Group. “The Public Funds Summit aims to provide an atmosphere of education and collaboration, where public sector professionals can exchange ideas, gain valuable insights, and develop strategies to navigate the complex investment landscape.”

The Public Funds Summit fosters a unique environment that prioritizes education over sales or marketing, creating a space where delegates, money managers, and consultants can engage in meaningful discussions and explore opportunities for growth. The event will commence with a Morning Harbor Excursion, providing attendees with a refreshing and invigorating start to the conference, as well as ample networking opportunities and a memorable experience.
