Free seminars a feature of show
The free seminars are a popular feature of the Money Shows and Christchurch ’B7 is no exception. "Space is of course limited, and people are advised to make sure of a seat at the presentation of some of the more popular papers,” says Paul Blackford, deputy managing director of Trade Publications, the show’s organising company.
“We chose the lectures on the basis of something for everybody each of the three days,” he says, “in preference to rigid categorisation by themes.”
However, combinations of papers have created themes and most investors with particular interests will find one day, or half day, more important than others.
Friday, February 27, is
strong on shares with the Christchurch publisher, Warren Head, giving the first of his two papers: “How to pursue investment winners in 1987.”
But it also contains the further important futures theme after lunch with George Price of Egden Wignall on “Charting commodities,” a technical analysis of the share market, Lincoln Gould from the new N.Z. Futures Exchange on these new opportunities, and Peter Jones of Buttle and Co. throwing light on playing the futures and currency markets.
Saturday morning concentrates on retirement planning, looking at “Future trends in superannuation” with John Errington of National Mutual, and “How to avoid the superannuation surcharge” with Graham
Rich of the local company Money Concepts NZ with his first paper.
A unit trust section of lectures on Saturday afternoon begins with Jack Hindin of the Investors’ Unit Trust, Christchurch on “How to read a unit trust prospectus for safety,” John Egden of Egden Wignall on “Investment opportunities in the sharemarket,” and goes offshore with Ben Adler of Kleinwort Benson, better known in Europe than New Zealand, on “The importance of including international investments in your portfolio.”
The offshore theme continues with Chris Murray of NZI Investment Services with “How to pick a trust to suit you,” though investors should not have missed “What are your overseas investment options?” on Friday with Roger Moses of Reeves, Moses, Hudig.
Sunday sees a real spread of interest but with an underlying financial planning theme with Graham Rich again on “Saving on a fixed income” and “How to structure your portfolio between shares, property and fixed interest.”
Ross Greenwood, managing editor of “Personal Investment” magazine on “Personal investment — focus on why you invest” gets down to some fundamentals and Richard Burtt of Christchurch solicitors, Lane Neave Ronaldson, demonstrates the role of his profession in finance with “Creative financing with the family
home — how to turn it into a working asset.” The session concludes with two papers on insurance: “A life policy as an investment, not an inheritance” from Peter Gulik of NZI Kiwi Investments and “How to tell if you ate underinsured” with Roger Lewis of Aetna Life.
