Storytelling in investment management

STORIES EAT NUMBERS FOR BREAKFAST.

This ageing knowledge acts as a double-edged sword for professional investors.

How can we get empowered through that? Connecting pieces of evidence to an investment hypothesis creates a narrative. How to bring the evident substance into a narrating form? Can you create a genuine story that can be plausibly conveyed to colleagues, investors and regulators? Why should we even work on telling an investment story?  How to distinguish between leading versus misleading storytelling? Join this sprint for a refreshingly new perspective on advancing the quality of your investment hypothesis.
