We hear it all the time, yet it remains so true: “It’s not about timing the markets, it's about time in the markets.”

In this quarter’s webinar, host Leigh Kohler speaks with Omri Thomas of Abax Investments and Leonard Kruger of M&G Investments about how, as two very experienced investment teams, they manage their funds in times of high volatility – and more specifically, in times of deep market drawdowns. Omri and Leonard will demonstrate why it's better to help your clients navigate these market uncertainties, rather than trying to time the market.

Joao Frasco, our CIO, also joined the discussion and speaks to why it's important ‘not to be greedy or fearful’ in times of market uncertainty.

DFM Portfolio manager Lubabalo Khenyane kicked off the session with an update on Q3's local and global model performance.

About the Webinar

We hear it all the time, yet it remains so true: “It’s not about timing the markets, it's about time in the markets.”

The markets are far too volatile and unpredictable for us to try and get right when to get in and when to get out. This year has been all about volatility and market drawdowns and while it has been such a scary ride for most investors, it has been even scarier for advisers and their clients.

You can expect to learn about:

• Understanding the potential negative impact of attempting to time the market on client investment outcomes
• Understanding the process of managing shares and other asset classes in times of high market volatility
• Understanding different definitions of risk i.e. volatility vs permanent loss of capital
