Annual Economic Outlook Breakfast
Featuring Jack Ablin, BMO Private Bank
What to Expect Under President Trump
BMO Private Bank US Chief Investment Officer Jack Ablin will be the keynote speaker at the Chambers’ annual Economic Outlook Breakfast to be held on Wednesday, April 26 at the Hilton Chicago Northbrook. Ablin will comment on the recent Trump administration promises to change the way Washington works, from repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), to tax cuts, regulatory rollbacks and fiscal spending. Ablin estimates that all told, the cost of the Commander in Chief’s programs will cost more than $10 trillion over the next ten years. “While the prospective legislation is clearly stimulative, we will examine what’s likely to pass and what impact it will have on the economy and stock markets, both domestically and in the world at large,” he comments. Ablin will also share his insight on basic economic indicators, including the expected rise in interest rates, inflation, the housing market and the outlook for employment.
As head of Macro Strategy, Ablin chairs the Asset Allocation, Mutual Fund Re-Optimization and Harriscreen Stock Selection committees and is responsible for establishing investment policy and strategy within BMO Private Bank throughout the U.S. He joined the organization in 2001 and has three decades of experience in money management.
Ablin is an author on a variety of topics, including investor psychology and financial markets outlook, and a frequent contributor to the national news outlets on economic policy, including CNBC, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal and Barron’s. Jack received an MBA with honors and graduated cum laude from Boston University in Massachusetts. He holds the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation and is a member of the CFA Society of Chicago. He was named one of the top 100 Wealth Advisors in North America by CityWealth Magazine in 2006 and 2010-2016.
Members from the Glenview and Deerfield Bannockburn Riverwoods (DBR) Chambers of Commerce will join us for the event.
