Benefits of Inquire UK membership

Seminars

• A two-day seminar in the second half of September (no seminar fee for members).
• A two-day seminar held in the spring jointly with Inquire Europe (no seminar fee for members).
• Evening meetings held from time to time in conjunction with the Insitute of Actuaries and UKSIP (nominal fee to cover refreshments and venue hire).
• Two or three seminars a year are organised by Inquire UK's sister organisations - Inquire Europe and Q-Group (the latter in the United States). Inquire UK members may attend subject to availability of places. Inquire Europe and Q-Group may charge a seminar fee.

Publications

• Access to papers, presentations and summaries from Inquire UK, Inquire Europe and Q-Group.

Membership of Inquire UK automatically provides access to the papers and published summaries of the Inquire UK seminars as well as those of the USA and European sister groups’ meetings.

Seminar summaries stand as testimony to the breadth and depth of new material that has been presented at the various seminars. Contributions have been made by leading academics in finance - amongst them Raman Uppal and Narayan Naik of London Business School, Robert Merton of Harvard Business School, John Campbell of Harvard University, Peter Pope at Lancaster University and Stephen Satchell of Cambridge University - as well as by practitioners from Inquire UK sponsor organisations. The subjects cover bonds, commodities, foreign exchange, options and derivatives as well as equities. The papers look at international, European and local data in assessing market efficiency, volatility and timing. Asset allocation, stock valuation models and performance measurement are covered in over 30 separate presentations. Topics range from the more erudite considerations of chaos theory and neural networks to the straightforward assessment of simple market timing models. There are also a number of papers on accounting issues where the cross-over between fundamental and quantitative research techniques is generally more obvious.
