Pershing’s annual Insite Conference will take place June 8-10 at its traditional home, the Westin Diplomat Hotel in Hollywood, Fla., and the keynote speakers will feature several former world leaders, in addition to a host of sessions on investing, the economy and the markets.
Pershing says that as of May 26, 1,948 people—attendees, sponsors, exhibitors and speakers—are expected to attend the conference, up several hundred from the prior year. That number includes 1,300 Pershing customers, including advisors and broker-dealer home office personnel, up from 1,037 in 2010 and 1,069 in 2009.
AdvisorOne will be providing onsite coverage of the event from Florida. (Separate AdvisorOne staffers will be reporting from the Morningstar Investment Conference in Chicago, which also runs from June 8-10.)

Later on Wednesday afternoon, Pershing Chairman Rich Brueckner moderates a panel discussion on Dodd-Frank with Ann Costello, government affairs managing director for BNY Mellon, along with representatives from the Insured Retirement Institute (IRI) and FINRA.
