From Experimentation to Execution: Practical AI Implementation in Investment Management

In this session, Christina Viglietta, VP of Operations, Americas at MDOTM Ltd., will explore how artificial intelligence can be implemented in practical, measurable ways within Wealth and Asset Management organizations — beyond experimentation. Rather than treating AI as a standalone tool, the discussion will focus on how firms can use it to unify fragmented investment workflows and consolidate a patchwork of platforms into a more centralized, coherent investment system.  Christina will outline how AI can support: AI-driven investment insights to enhance portfolio construction and risk analysis Streamlined operational processes that reduce manual workload across research, monitoring, and rebalancing Automated yet personalized reporting and investment storytelling, helping advisors clearly communicate strategy, performance drivers, and risk positioning to clients Scalable service models that allow firms to grow assets under management without sacrificing quality, transparency, or responsiveness The session will also address the practical challenges of moving from isolated pilot projects to firm-wide integration — including governance, workflow redesign, and change management. Date & Time Tuesday, April 28 12:00 - 1:00 PM CT Location Virtual - Zoom The meeting link will be shared through your registration confirmation email

Volunteer Opportunity: CFA Society Nashville / Junior Achievement Finance Park

We are once again gathering a group CFA Society Nashville Members to spend a day volunteering with Junior Achievement (JA) at their Finance Park program. JA is a nonprofit dedicated to empowering students with the skills they need to own their economic success as they grow up. For the JA Finance Park program , volunteers spend the morning supporting a small group of upper middle school students as they complete a personal budgeting simulation. As students move through the “stations” of the activity, volunteers share about their own career journey and facilitate conversations around personal finance. This program exposes students to a range of careers and encourages healthy financial habits. Note: No prior experience working with students is required; JA provides training at the start of the session to ensure volunteers are prepared. Details When: Wednesday, April 29, from 8:00 AM - 1:30 PM Address: 120 Powell Place, Nashville, TN 37204 Boxed lunch provided by CFA Society Nashville for volunteers Itinerary: Check in, 60-minute training before students arrive, break out into student groups (built in lunch break), 15-minute debrief after students depart Time commitment: 5.5 hours (including training) This is a great chance to connect with other members in a new setting while helping students develop essential life skills.
