Running an investment committee effectively. The purpose of an investment committee is to oversee the group investment strategy from a number of perspectives and to ensure that the best interests of both the business and its clients are at the core of all investment activity. This might range from the selection of suitable attitude to risk and stochastic modelling tools to strategic and tactical asset allocation and fund selection.
