SUMMARY:Fund Administration Law
DESCRIPTION:120 euros \n\nCPD hours: 3 \nAim\nThe seminar studies the fund industry in Cyprus\, with a particular focus on the function of fund administration. The seminar provides an overview of how the fund industry operates\, providing key points on the organizational structure of funds and their different characteristics (Section 1). In addition\, the seminar studies the profession of Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFMs) (Section 2)\, before it proceeds to analyze the key roles and duties of fund administration (Section 3). In accordance with Cyprus Law\, fund administration falls within the function of fund management.

SUMMARY:LCI 2022 | Misinformation\, Dishonesty and  Morality with Daniel Effron
DESCRIPTION:We constantly read that we live in a “post-truth” era. \nAs lies and “fake news” flourish\, citizens appear not only to believe misinformation\, but also to condone/accept misinformation they do not believe.\nDr. Effron’s research shows three psychological factors that encourage people to condone misinformation: partisanship\, imagination\, and repetition. \nEach factor relates to a hallmark of “post-truth” society: political polarization\, leaders who push “alterative facts\,” and technology that amplifies disinformation. \nA central concern with this post-truth era is that not only people believe and spread misinformation- but when they recognize it as false\, they continue to\nspread lies\, and give it a moral pass. \nThe question is: Why We Excuse Dishonesty in a Post-Truth World? \nPROF. EFFRON’S  TALK WILL FOCUS ON:\nDr. Effron will talk about how can we get people\, the media and our society to recognize and condemn such behaviour and make interventions aimed at reducing the spread of misinformation \nDaniel Effron\nDaniel Effron earned a Ph.D. in social psychology from Stanford University\, and a B.A. in psychology from Yale University (magna cum laude). He taught at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University\, and was a fellow of the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard University. \nHis research examines the psychological processes that allow people to act unethically without feeling unethical. He also researches how people form judgments of others’ wrongdoing. His work has appeared in such scholarly publications as Journal of Personality and Social Psychology\, Psychological Science\, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes\, Journal of Applied Psychology\, and Journal of Consumer Research. \nHe is frequently featured and quoted in popular media outlets as the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, the Los Angeles Times\, The Atlantic\, and BBC News. \nTHIS LCI EVENT IS PRESENTED WITHIN THE CYPRUS FORUM \n29 September 2022\n18:30 – 19:30 Live Talk\n19:30 – 20:30 Networking Cocktail (Municipal Gardens behind the theater) \n29 September 2022\n18:30 – 19:30 Live Talk\n19:30 – 20:30 Networking Cocktail (Municipal Gardens behind the theater)
