    9:45 Gaining A Global Perspective Of How MoneyManagement Is EvolvingThe advent of the European Union in the mid-1990s catalyzed the

    continuing convergence of developed economies and markets. This

    convergence led to a breakdown of traditional alpha sources such as

    region, country, size and style allocation. This convergence, unlikely to

    be reversed, puts stock selection at the forefront of alpha generation.

    Global markets are undergoing the next cycle of integration as

    emerging markets merge into the mainstream global economy. How

    does one capitalize on these significant events?
