Chapter News: New President's Message

Dear FPA NCA Members,

Between the cherry blossoms and a deluge of client correspondence pertaining to getting organized for tax season, Spring is here! The FPA NCA has continued to build momentum from our well attended Smarter Planner Winter Symposium this month with an Alternative Investment showcase at the Archer Hotel in Tyson’s Corner on March 7^th.

If you attended, thank you! If not, you missed a deep dive into Private Credit with Golub Capital, innovation in the Private Equity space with Blackstone, and opportunities in Private Infrastructure with Cantor Fitzgerald. Thank you again to our sponsors for bringing in experts to demystify these asset classes! 

Once we’ve all recovered from the April 15^th deadline, get ready for some excellent in-person events in April, May and June.
