CAIA London
The Exchange: In conversation with Anthony Bolton

CAIA London is pleased to collaborate with CFA UK on their 3rd edition of The Exchange series, featuring Anthony Bolton, one of the UK’s foremost investment fund managers and most successful investors, in conversation with Tom Stevenson, Investment Director at Fidelity International.

Anthony Bolton was dubbed ‘the British Warren Buffett’ by the UK press and is a famous contrarian investor, particularly popular with value investors. He is also the author of ‘Investing Against the Tide.’

This in-person discussion will draw on decades of experience across different market cycles to reflect on the discipline of long-term investing.

Anthony and Tom will consider:

  • How investors assess risk and valuation
  • How market sentiment influences outcomes
  • How can independent judgment be maintained when consensus views appear most compelling

This is a unique opportunity to hear directly from the UK’s most successful investor, so one not to be missed.
