In an environment of increasingly low or even negative interest rates, how can institutional investors, who traditionally invest in bonds, meet their financial production constraints? Should they turn to other types of assets, but at what risk?

We asked our guest speaker to explain how an asset management company is adapting to this new context, which is also likely to impact the profitability of its activities.

Ibrahima KOBAR, CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst), will share with us his 25 years' experience in fixed-income markets. combined with a high level of technical expertise and the ability to anticipate, as well as enlightened advice to help clients understand the risks of the products and management offers on offer.

Our guest began his career in 1989 as a statistician in Société Générale's banking and financial economic research department. In 1991, he joined Midland Bank as an actuary/rates manager. In 1994, he joined Ixis Asset Management as an insurance portfolio manager in the bond management department, and in 1998 became head of insurance management, derivatives and structured products. In 2007, he was promoted to Head of Bond Management at Natixis Asset Management, then in 2010 to Head of Fixed Income Management, overseeing the Bond Management and Money Market Management divisions. He joined the Natixis AM Executive Committee that same year. Ibrahima Kobar is a qualified actuary from the Institut de Statistiques de Paris (ISUP) and a member of the Institut des Actuaires Français (IAF).
