SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Henry Kaufman on The Day the Markets Roared: How a 1982 Forecast Sparked a Global Bull Market
DESCRIPTION:As we emerge from a global pandemic and a period of economic stagnation\, we can look to the past to gain inspiration for better times ahead. The year 1982 marked the start of almost four decades of U.S. economic growth. However\, this classic Wall Street story has never been fully told—until now. In his latest book\, The Day the Markets Roared: How a 1982 Forecast Sparked a Bull Market (Matt Holt Books\, 2021)\, legendary economist Henry Kaufman\, Ph.D.\, tells his first-hand account of one remarkable day in financial and economic history. \nAfter painful years of high interest rates and the inflation of the late 1960s and 1970s\, consumers were paying 17% and higher to borrow money. But by the end of one summer day almost 40 years ago\, the stock market had undergone its second-biggest rally since WWII\, while bond prices soared and interest rates plunged. Kaufman himself had written a memo that sparked this tremendous boom\, and it set the global markets on fire. The Day the Markets Roared features a rich cast of characters\, from Salomon’s John Gutfreund and interest rate guru Sydney Homer to Kaufman’s longtime friend Paul Volcker\, former chairman of the Federal Reserve. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Sris Chatterjee\, chair of the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president and CEO of the Museum of American\nFinance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Henry Kaufman \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nHenry Kaufman is president of Henry Kaufman & Company Inc.\, a firm established in April 1988\, specializing in economic and financial consulting. For the previous 26 years\, he was with Salomon Brothers Inc.\, where he was managing director\, member of the Executive Committee\, and in charge of the firm’s four research departments. He was also a vice chairman of the parent company\, Salomon Inc. Before joining Salomon Brothers\, Kaufman was in commercial banking and served as an economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. \nKaufman received a B.A. in economics from New York University\, an M.S. in finance from Columbia University\, and a Ph.D. in banking and finance from the NYU Graduate School of Business Administration. He also received an honorary Doctor of Law degree from NYU\, and honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degrees from Yeshiva University and Trinity College. His latest book\, The Day the Markets Roared\, will be released in April 2021. He has also written Tectonic Shifts in Financial Markets (2017)\, The Road to Financial Reformation (2009)\, and On Money and Markets\, A Wall Street Memoir (2000). In 1987\, Kaufman was awarded the first George S. Eccles Prize for excellence in economic writing from the Columbia Business School for his book Interest Rates\, the Markets\, and the New Financial World. \nCopies of The Day the Markets Roared will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: John F. Wasik on Lincolnomics: How President Lincoln Constructed the Great American Economy
DESCRIPTION:Has there ever been a time when Abraham Lincoln has gone silent? Our immortal conscience on civil rights and individual freedom is speaking to us yet again in the time of COVID-19 and public unrest. Yet Lincoln has managed to become even more relevant as we tackle infrastructure\, health care\, climate change\, and human rights. The forthcoming book by John F. Wasik\, Lincolnomics: How President Lincoln Constructed the Great American Economy\, puts the 16th president in a powerful new light: He was our foremost architect of economic development\, equal treatment\, and physical and intellectual improvements\, from transportation to medical research. \nIn this presentation\, Wasik will show a vastly under-studied side of Lincoln. As the only president to hold a patent\, he was an innovator. During his brief time as a surveyor\, he was an urban planner. Surprisingly\, his longest and most comprehensive speeches were devoted to the culture of invention\, “internal improvements\,” and research and development. \nLincoln as “Innovator in Chief” has enhanced relevance today\, as the new Congress and president lean into a bold program on national infrastructure\, climate change\, and health care reforms. Lincoln not only gave the nation a framework for a more just and equitable society\, he literally told us how we could go about building it. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: James Kelly\, director of the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president and CEO of the Museum of American\nFinance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: John F. Wasik \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nWasik is the author of 19 books and has spoken all across North America. As a journalist\, he’s written for The New York Times\, Forbes\, The Wall Street Journal\, AARP\, Barron’s\, Fortune.com\, Money\, Reader’s Digest\, and Washington Monthly\, and he has been a columnist for Bloomberg News\, Reuters\, and other national publications. In 2018\, Wasik was named an Illinois Road Scholar for the Illinois Humanities Council. \nCopies of Lincolnomics will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Hidden in Plain Sight: How to Save Active Investment Management\, Part I: The Situation
DESCRIPTION:Diversification is a core principle of investing. Yet money managers have not applied it to their own ranks. Only around 10 percent of portfolio managers—the people most directly responsible for investing your money—are female\, and the numbers are even worse at the ownership level. What are the causes of this underrepresentation\, and what are its consequences—including for firms’ and clients’ bottom lines? \nIn Undiversified: The Big Gender Short in Investment Management\, experienced practitioners Ellen Carr and Katrina Dudley examine the lack of women in investment management and propose solutions to improve the imbalance. They explore the barriers that subtly but effectively discourage women from entering and staying in the industry at each point in the pipeline. At the entry-level\, the lack of visible role models discourages students from considering the field\, and those who do embark on an investment management career face many obstacles to retention and promotion. Carr and Dudley highlight the importance of informal knowledge about how to navigate career tracks\, without which women are left at a disadvantage in an industry that lionizes confidence. They showcase a diverse constellation of successful female portfolio managers to demystify the profession. \nDrawing on wide-ranging research; interviews with prospective\, current\, and former industry practitioners; and the authors’ own experiences\, Undiversified makes a compelling case that increasing the number of women could help transform active investment management at a time when it is under threat from passive strategies and technological innovation. \nAgenda \n5:30 p.m.: Welcome Remarks and Speaker Introductions: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n5:35 p.m.: Fireside Chat: Ellen Carr\, Katrina Dudley\, and Dan Hanson; moderated by Laura Rittenhouse \n6:15 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n6:30 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Dean Rapaccioli \nAbout the Speakers\nEllen Carr has more than two decades of experience as a high-yield bond portfolio manager\, most recently at Weaver C.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: George G. Szpiro on Risky Decisions: How Mathematical Paradoxes and Other Conundrums Have Shaped Economic Science
DESCRIPTION:At its core\, economics is about making decisions. In the history of economic thought\, great intellectual prowess has been exerted toward devising exquisite theories of optimal decision-making in situations of constraint\, risk\, and scarcity. Yet not all of our choices are purely logical\, so there is a long-standing tension between those emphasizing the rational and irrational sides of human behavior. One strand develops formal models of rational utility-maximizing\, while the other draws on what behavioral science has shown about our tendency to act irrationally. \nIn this talk\, George Szpiro will give examples of mathematical paradoxes and psychological conundrums that have led to advancements in economic science. He will challenge the audience with questions about how to make decisions\, thereby showing how people who believe themselves to be rational can be led astray. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president and CEO of the Museum of American\nFinance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: George G. Szpiro \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nGeorge G. Szpiro is an award-winning author and journalist. A longtime correspondent for the Swiss daily Neue Zürcher Zeitung\, his many books include Numbers Rule: The Vexing Mathematics of Democracy\, from Plato to the Present (2010) and Pricing the Future: Finance\, Physics\, and the 300-Year Journey to the Black-Scholes Equation (2011). \nCopies of Risky Business will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion with Kevin R. Mirabile\, author of Exotic Alternative Investments: Standalone Characteristics\, Unique Risks and Portfolio Effects (Anthem Press\, 2021).

She also serves as the chair of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors: Fashion Makes Change. Smyth is the global managing director at Accenture for Resilient Responsible Retail/Sustainability. She joined Fordham University and Accenture from her post as the founding director of the Fair Fashion Center and vice president of Glasgow Caledonian New York College (GCNYC). As global lead of Accenture’s Resilient Responsible Retail practice\, Smyth is applying a data-driven environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) lens to build new opportunities that capitalize on the demand for end-to-end responsible business transformation—reducing impact\, optimizing supply chains\, leveraging consumer interest\, utilizing smart technology\, and innovating Accenture’s services in this emerging sector. As COVID-19 exposed business and process vulnerabilities to investors and consumers\, the materiality of ESG is driving it to be the new management approach to future-proof business. \nThe Fair Fashion Center was formed to incubate scalable business solutions that address the social and environmental impacts of fashion and became home to the industry’s only CEO coalition. Focused on transforming business through collective action\, Smyth built a new protocol that leverages the intersection of profitability and sustainability\, helping brands and retailers restructure their processes while identifying operating efficiencies and innovations that turn complex global issues into scalable industry opportunities. Working privately and collectively with 41 CEOs\, the group represented 250 brands and nearly 15% of the global industry. \nNow housed within Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors\, FMC is a triple-impact solution that catalyzes collective action\, builds resilient communities\, and reverses the climate crisis. Recognizing we all have a role to play\, FMC aligns industry\, nonprofits\, investors\, and customers in the transition to a sustainable world. A former global fashion industry veteran\, Smyth held senior executive positions at Jil Sander\, Burberry\, and other venerable companies. In her role bridging the industry\, academia\, and a sustainable future\, she served as a board member for Glasgow Caledonian University and Sing for Hope\, is an RSA fellow\, a Tribeca Disrupter\, and on the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Global Sector Advisory Council. She has delivered keynote presentations at conferences including Textile Exchange\, Bluesign\, Vogue/Condé Nast Greece\, Alcantara/Venice International University Climate HOW\, and Bloomberg Vanity Fair Climate Exchange. \nZambrelli is executive director of the newly formed Responsible Business Coalition (RBC) at Fordham University’s Gabelli School of Business\, supporting the cross-sector collaboration of industry and education to reduce environmental and social impacts—driving toward a future that considers people\, planet and profit. A design and branding chief executive\, educator\, and sustainability expert\, his extensive professional experience spans fashion\, retail\, and the environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) implications therein. After more than a decade working for world-class brands\, he began the award-winning studio Design Quadrant and\, more recently\, launched the NYC-based\, sustainable luxury brand 1 Atelier. His extension into academia nearly a decade ago was inspired by a desire to better knit the changing demands of industry to curricula. \nHis broad-spectrum experience has followed the pulse of change in the fashion industry\, where his work has been instrumental in the success of companies for more than 15 years\, at a roster including Chanel\, Calvin Klein\, Coach\, and many others. He’s a culture creator—whether shaping start-ups for long-term growth or short-term sale—or leveraging his experience to redirect global brands toward more sustainable and regenerative futures. In his latest venture\, Zambrelli joins his former colleagues from the Fair Fashion Center in the formation of an ESG retail practice within Accenture\, the multinational professional services company\, shaping strategy\, digital technology\, and operations through the lens of sustainability and a more responsible future. \nA regular face in digital\, broadcast\, and print media\, and on panels discussing responsible business and the acceleration of ESG\, his latest work focuses on guiding industries in disruption toward a more data-driven\, equitable\, and regenerative future. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree from FIT\, and a Master of Science degree from Glasgow Caledonian.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Joseph Calandro Jr. on Jay Gould and the Union Pacific from the Panic of 1873-1880
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the latest event in the Centennial Speaker Series\, featuring Joseph Calandro Jr. \nNo one in the United States’ financial or business history is as misunderstood and underappreciated as Jay Gould. This presentation will assess Gould’s skills as a corporate executive following his distressed investment in\, and subsequent control of\, the Union Pacific Railroad (UP). The UP was in distress due to volatility emanating from the infamous financial panic of 1873. Gould executed his turnaround in an economy devoid of monetary stimulus\, without a government bailout\, and under pressure from the government to pay back the firm’s public loans. Gould employed many modern techniques in his turnaround that are relevant to 21st-century executives. His example also serves as an important historical reminder that successful executives do not require government bailouts. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president and CEO of the Museum of American\nFinance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Joseph Calandro Jr. \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nCalandro Jr. is a managing director of a global consulting firm and a fellow of the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis. He is the author of Applied Value Investing (2009) and a contributing editor to the journal Strategy & Leadership\, as well as the author of Creating Strategic Value (Columbia Business School Publishing\, 2020). In the book\, Calandro builds from a historical analysis of traditional value investing concepts to their strategic applications. He surveys value investing’s past\, present\, and future\, drawing on influential texts\, from Graham and Dodd’s time-tested works to more recent studies to reveal potent managerial lessons. Offering expert insight into the use of value investing principles in new fields\, Creating Strategic Value is an important book for corporate strategy and management practitioners at all levels\, as well as for students and researchers. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

Gabelli is the chairman and CEO of GAMCO Investors\, Inc.\, the firm he founded in 1977.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Lawrence Cunningham on Quality Shareholders: How the Best Managers Attract and Keep Them
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the latest event in the Centennial Speaker Series\, featuring Lawrence A. Cunningham\, author of Quality Shareholders: How the Best Managers Attract and Keep Them\, and Astrid Doerner\, a financial correspondent. Anyone can buy stock in a public company\, but not all shareholders are equally committed to a company’s long-term success. In an increasingly fragmented financial world\, shareholders’ attitudes toward the companies in which they invest vary widely\, from time horizon to conviction. Faced with indexers\, short-term traders\, and activists\, it is more important than ever for businesses to ensure that their shareholders are dedicated to their missions. Today’s companies need “quality shareholders\,” as Warren Buffett called those who “load up and stick around\,” or buy large stakes and hold for long periods. \nIn Quality Shareholders\, Cunningham provides an expert guide to the benefits of attracting and keeping quality shareholders. He demonstrates that a high density of dedicated\, long-term shareholders results in numerous comparative and competitive advantages for companies and their managers\, including a longer runway to execute business strategy and a loyal cohort against adversity. \nDigital copies of Quality Shareholders: How the Best Managers Attract and Keep Them will be raffled off to attendees. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Astrid Doerner and Lawrence Cunningham \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speakers\nCunningham is an author\, lecturer\, professor\, public company director\, and consultant on corporate governance. He is the Henry St. George Tucker III Research Professor at George Washington University and founding director of George Washington University in New York. He is the author of more than a dozen books\, including The Warren Buffett Shareholder: Stories from Inside the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting; The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America\, in collaboration with Buffett; The AIG Story\, with Hank Greenberg; and Berkshire Beyond Buffett: The Enduring Value of Values. \nDoerner is a U.S. correspondent in New York for Handelsblatt\, Germany’s leading business daily. She has covered Berkshire Hathaway for many years\, including interviews with Buffett\, Charlie Munger\, and Ted Weschler\, and she is a regular attendee of the company’s shareholder meetings in Omaha\, Nebraska. Doerner also covers banks\, financial markets\, and the economy. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.
