The JCC held an investment focused breakfast seminar in association with Capital International earlier this month. 70 members and guests attended the event at the Claremont in Douglas.

Chris Bell, a Senior Investment Manager from Capital International gave an extremely interesting and informative presentation about the global economy and its outlook. The JCC were fortunate to once again attract such a high calibre speaker.

Chris spoke about the rising importance of different nations and themes not just the West from an Investment and Stockbroking perspective. This included themes such as demographic changes, shift towards urbanisation, food pressures, energy and longer term geopolitical tensions.

His thoughts were well received by the attendees and gave for extended discussions of views amongst members and their guests.

The JCC look to offer their members access to a range of events and networking opportunities kindly supported by the likes of Capital International.

JCC membership is open to IOM resident individuals and corporate organisations. Application forms are available at www.jcc.im
