Dear John,

The 2nd annual Inside Smart Beta conference, June 8-9 in NYC, will bring together leading academics, institutional investors, quant geeks and ETF pundits for straight talk on smart beta. No sales pitches or overstuffed panels—you'll hear from real users talking about how smart beta is actually working in their portfolios.

You'll get cutting-edge insights from speakers like Rob Arnott on pitfalls in smart beta; Lance Humphrey, portfolio manager at USAA, on how large institutional investors have adopted factor allocations in their portfolios; and Chida Khatua, CEO of EquBot, on the rise of artificial intelligence and the next wave of asset management (see full speaker lineup here). We will dive deep, with hard-hitting sessions like Factors in Fixed Income and The Human Factor: Can True Active Beat Smart Beta in a Fair Fight? (see the agenda here).
