Crane Data is gearing up for its next "basic training" conference, Money Fund University. Our 9th annual MFU will take place at the Stamford Marriot Hotel in Stamford, Conn., January 17-18, 2019. Crane's Money Fund University is designed for those new to the money market fund industry or those in need of a concentrated refresher on the basics. The event features a faculty of the money fund industry's top lawyers, strategists, and portfolio managers. (See the agenda here or e-mail us to request the latest brochure.) Money Fund University offers a 2-day crash course on money market mutual funds, educating attendees on the history of money funds, the Fed, interest rates, ratings, rankings, and money market instruments such as commercial paper, CDs and repo. We also cover portfolio construction and credit analysis. At our Stamford event in January, we will also take a look at newly implemented European money market fund regulations and we'll also include a mini "Bond Fund University" segment on ultra-short bond funds and money fund alternatives. Attendee registration for Crane's Money Fund University is just $500, exhibit space is $2,000, and sponsorship opportunities are $3K (Bronze), $4K (Silver), and $5K (Gold). A block of rooms has been reserved at the Stamford Marriot Hotel. We'd like to thank our past and pending MFU sponsors -- Dreyfus/BNY Mellon CIS, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Fitch Ratings, TD Securities, S&P Global Ratings, Dechert LLP, Fidelity and Federated -- for their support, and we look forward to seeing you in Stamford in January. Visit www.moneyfunduniversity.com to register or for more details. Crane Data is also preparing for its next Bond Fund Symposium (March 25-26, 2019, at the Loews Philadelphia Hotel), and our next "big show," Money Fund Symposium, which will be held June 24-26, 2019, at the Renaissance Boston. Watch for details on these shows in coming weeks and months.
