What you can expect

The Bocholt Investment Forum is aimed at anyone interested in current developments on the international financial markets. Top-class speakers analyse trends, evaluate opportunities and risks and provide insights into the strategies of successful asset managers. The Investment Forum offers more than just individual opinions: Our four chief strategists weave geopolitics, macroeconomics, equity strategies and alternative investments into a coherent overall picture. Experience a logical causal chain of the markets - from global upheaval to strategic investment decisions.

The following presentations await you:

Geopolitics: "World order in upheaval: Strategic autonomy and new alliances". Who benefits from global bloc formation.

Macroeconomics "Between inflation & growth: The new era of central banks". How stable are the foundations after the interest rate turnaround?

Stock market: "Yield 2026: Why market breadth is winning now". Selection instead of hype - where the extra pearls lie.

Special / Excursus "Diversification: Alternatives to the classic equity-bond portfolio". Why real assets including direct investments are worth more than just a look.

Discuss with us.
