With money market fund assets hitting records almost daily (assets rose by $27.7 billion on Monday to a record $5.550 trillion), our next Money Fund Symposium, seems destined to break our pre-pandemic record of 570 attendees. Money Fund Symposium 2023 is scheduled for June 21-23, 2023 at The Hyatt Regency Atlanta, in Atlanta, Ga. The full agenda for the largest gathering of money market fund managers and cash investors in the world is available and registrations are being taken. Money Fund Symposium attracts money fund managers, marketers and servicers, cash investors, money market securities dealers, issuers, and regulators. We review our latest agenda, as well as Crane Data's other 2023 conferences, below. (Note: Thanks once more to those who attended our Bond Fund Symposium last week in Boston! Attendees and subscribers may access the conference binder, Powerpoints and recordings via our "Bond Fund Symposium 2023 Download Center," and watch for highlights in the upcoming issues of Money Fund Intelligence and Bond Fund Intelligence.)

We're also making plans for our next European Money Fund Symposium, which is scheduled for Sept. 25-26, 2023, in Edinburgh, Scotland.
