The spring Treasury conference season kicks off next Wednesday, May 5, at the Boston Marriott Copley Place with the Treasury Management of New England's (TMANE) annual show. Crane Data's Peter Crane and Dwight Asset Management's John Donohue will talk the first afternoon on "Rising Rates and New Regulations: Monitoring Your Money Funds & Positioning Your Money Market Holdings". The two will discuss the current short-term investing environment and will review the pros and cons of cash during periods of interest rate hikes and will also review recent changes in money markets and money fund regulations. Other topics of interest include: Cash Investment Management "101", an "introduction to the investment of cash assets for corporate investors," led by Morgan Stanley Private Wealth Management's Tom Kazazes; Fundamental Analysis of Prime Institutional Money Market Funds, presented by Capital Advisors Lance Pan; and, Reform, Ratings and Returns: The New Era of Money Market Funds by Fidelity Investments' Michael Morin.
