Baader Investment Conference enjoys a record turnout and is leading industry platform in the German-speaking region

Unterschleissheim, September 25, 2017: The four-day Baader Investment Conference, held very successfully for the sixth time in Munich last week, again enjoyed a record turnout with some 750 investors from 33 countries and 175 listed companies from Germany, Switzerland, and Austria in attendance. The conference was extended to four days for the first time following the new participation of 24 Swiss companies. Twenty-two DAX-listed, four SMI-listed and thirteen ATX-listed companies used the international platform to present their credentials and deepen their relations with investors in nearly 3000 one-to-one and small-group meetings. Overall, a constructive outlook for further business development prevailed.

'The sustained positive response from the participants and further uninterrupted rise in participant numbers over the last five years since the Baader Investment Conference was inaugurated show how our offer is setting the pace for investor conferences in the German-speaking region,' said Christian Bacherl, member of the Board of Managing Directors of Baader Bank. 'This is also confirmed by the large number of renowned investors who have come from all over the world,' added Oliver Riedel, also a member of the Board of Managing Directors of Baader Bank.

Away from the panels and forums, there were also lively discussions on market-moving topics like the rise of digitization within the finance sector, financial policy uncertainties, interest rate policy, and the election in Germany. Conference attendees also used the information platform to gain further knowledge from the experts on regulatory topics as well as MiFID II.

'The great success of and positive feedback to the Baader Investment Conference confirms that Baader Bank is on the right strategic track,' summarised Nico Baader, Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Parallel to the presentation panels, the forum for asset managers was staged at the Baader Investment Conference for the fourth time in a row. 'The large number of participants from asset managers and family offices, which are an important target group for Baader Bank, is particularly pleasing and confirms our chosen path,' said Oliver Riedel.

The next Baader Investment Conference will be held in Munich from September 24 to 27, 2018. Further details can be found online at http://www.baaderinvestmentconference.com.
