Naturally, the discussion revolved around the current banking environment as well as key macro topics including the outlook for inflation, interest rates, and how to be positioned for debt ceiling-related market turmoil.
Special thanks to the Morgan Stanley team including Edward Reilly for providing his insights during the opening reception as well as Matthew H., Manan Gosalia, Betanya Aklilu, Richard Myers, and Howard Brocklehurst who each led sessions on these and solutions-related topics.
