FinanceMalta participates in 5th Global Family Office Investment Summit in Dubai

A delegation from FinanceMalta, including governor John Huber, recently participated in the twoday 5th Global Family Office Investment Summit which was held on 13th and 14th March at the Four Seasons Resort Jumeirah Beach, Dubai UAE.

The summit, which was organised by the Ritossa Family Office, brought together the world’s leading experts geared toward identifying actionable strategies for generating returns in a low-rate, high volatility market. Facilitated by family offices, the summit provided two days of private peer-topeer conversation, networking, and cross-border thought leadership, designed to make one think about what to look out for, how one should invest, and why?

Speaking about FinanceMalta’s participation in this event, chairman Kenneth Farrugia said that, “our participation in this summit forms part of our commitment to meet and exchange views on what Malta has to offer to affluent family offices and wealth managers. Furthermore, our involvement in events in the Middle East is in line with our drive to venture into new markets outside the European Union.”

This event was the 5th in the global series covering Dubai, Monaco, and Miami - and was the 3rd event in Dubai. Over 200+ Elite Family Offices, Prominent Conglomerate Business Owners, Sheikhs, Royal Families, Private Investment Companies, Soverign Wealth Funds, & industry profes- sionals from across the Middle East and around the globe attended the forum, representing over $2 trillion in investor wealth which made it the world's largest and most exclusive gathering of elite family office decision makers.

The theme for this year was "East Meets West" as the summit acted as a bridge between Middle East families and their European, U.S., Asian and Latin American counterparts. The summit also provided an opportunity for the delegates to meet, network and exchange information and ideas.
