The slides and recording of the WPA Annual Conference 2024 are available at the bottom of this page. 

The 15th edition of the World Pension Alliance Annual Conference is organised by PensionsEurope, together with the other members of the World Pension Alliance.

The WPA Conference 2024 will be held online on 18 June 2024 between 15:00 – 18:00 (CEST).

Each year, the World Pension Alliance brings together leading experts in pensions, pension professionals, and policymakers to exchange views and best practices on the most pressing issues in pensions.

The theme of this year is ‘’Transition in the World of Pensions’’. Amidst a changing global political landscape with half of the world population heading to the polls this year, the conference will explore how these shifts are likely to impact pension funds and retirement benefits worldwide. What opportunities and risks are on the horizon? And what regional differences can we expect?

Additionally, the conference will focus on sustainable finance, which has surged to the forefront of agendas across the globe. Despite its prominence, concerns regarding ESG pushback and regulatory fatigue are increasing. The conference will examine current trends and identify future trajectories.

This event is FREE of charge and open to everybody.
