Hancock Hits the Road


A team from John Hancock Funds will spend a month on the road this fall, going from city to city on their annual tour for financial advisors. This year's road show, which starts in Garden City, NY on September 29 and ends in Denver one month later, is titled "It's About Time," and looks to help advisors inspire clients after an unfortunate year.

“It is time for investors to regain confidence in their advisers and in the investing process, and overall to regain confidence in the equity and fixed income markets,” stated Jeff Duckworth, Senior Vice President and Head of Sales. “It is also time for mutual fund companies to do what it takes to help advisers help investors get back on track toward achieving their financial goals.”

Each stop on the 24 city list will feature a luncheon presentation by a Hancock portfolio manager who will present materials and tools to aid advisors in building their businesses. There will also be guest speakers drawn from firms that sub-advise Hancock's funds, including Epoch Investment Partners, GMO, MFC Global Investment Management, Rainier Investment Management, Robeco Boston Partners, Sovereign Asset Management and Sustainable Growth Advisers. Hancock expects around 100 advisors at each luncheon.
