It brings together French institutional investors, including insurance companies, pension funds, mutual insurers, and sovereign wealth managers, for a structured programme combining market strategy panels, thematic forums on ESG and impact investing, and the public release of the annual AF2I-L'Agefi survey on French institutional investor portfolio allocations. The event serves as the principal annual convening moment for the French institutional investment community. ## The 2026 edition: 30 June at Hôtel Shangri-La The 2026 Institutional Day takes place on Tuesday 30 June 2026 at the Hôtel Shangri-La in Paris. The full-day programme is structured in two consecutive blocks: the Forum des Investisseurs Institutionnels in the morning and the ESG and Impact Investing Forum in the afternoon. The 2026 edition is confirmed by AF2I, the co-organising association, on its events calendar. Programme details, confirmed speakers, and delegate pricing have not been publicly released as of verification. ## Where the Institutional Day sits in the Paris institutional calendar The Institutional Day falls on 30 June 2026, marking the end of the first half of the year, a deliberate calendrical positioning that aligns with institutional investor mid-year portfolio reviews. In the private capital circuit, it falls on the same date as the Operating Partners Summit (25 June) and the AGEFI Cercles Monaco gathering (18 June), forming a cluster of L'Agefi-associated events in the final weeks of June. The release of the AF2I-L'Agefi survey at the event anchors it in the institutional investment calendar as a market reference moment rather than simply a professional networking occasion. ## What separates the Institutional Day from general private capital events The Institutional Day is not a private equity event structured around fundraising or LP and GP meeting dynamics. Its primary audience is the institutional investor community itself: insurance chief investment officers, pension fund managers, mutual insurer treasurers, and sovereign wealth teams who allocate across asset classes, with private capital as one component. The survey release positions the event as a data publication as much as a conference, giving it a reference function that draws attendance even from institutional investors who do not typically attend private capital circuit events. The dual-forum structure, allocations in the morning, ESG and impact in the afternoon, reflects the two dominant analytical lenses currently applied to institutional portfolios in France. ## Who attends the Institutional Day - **Insurance companies:** French life and non-life insurers, including major groups, attending through their investment and asset-liability management teams. - **Pension funds and retirement bodies:** ARRCO, AGIRC-ARRCO-affiliated entities, and other French pension structures with multi-asset allocation mandates. - **Mutual insurers:** Mutuelles and provident institutions with significant asset bases, active allocators across private markets and fixed income. - **Sovereign and quasi-sovereign investors:** Caisse des Dépôts, regional savings institutions, and public-sector investment bodies with long-duration mandates. - **Family offices and endowments:** Private wealth structures with institutional-grade allocation frameworks, attending for the survey findings and ESG content. - **Asset managers and fund managers:** Investment firms presenting strategies and research to the institutional investor audience, attending as counterparties rather than primary participants. ## What the Institutional Day format includes - **Forum des Investisseurs Institutionnels (morning):** Opens at 09:00 with the joint AF2I-L'Agefi survey presentation (09:00-09:20), followed by two roundtables: asset allocation and diversification (09:20-10:10), then investment strategies for the year (10:10-11:00). - **ESG and Impact Investing Forum (afternoon):** Opens at 14:30 with an ESG trends session, followed by three roundtables: technology and ESG (15:25-16:15), shareholder engagement (16:15-17:05), and impact investing strategies (17:05-17:55). - **AF2I-L'Agefi survey release:** Presented at the 09:00 opening, this is the advance release of the annual survey on French institutional investor portfolio allocations, the primary data anchor of the full day. - **Networking:** Contact time between morning and afternoon programmes, plus breaks embedded within each forum. This programme structure is documented based on the 2025 edition. The 2026 programme has not been released as of verification; the session sequence is expected to follow the same format. ## What the Institutional Day programme covers The morning forum addresses strategic allocation in a constrained macro environment. The 2025 edition opened with the question of how institutional investors should rethink asset allocation in light of political and economic uncertainty, framing discussions on European versus US equity positioning, duration management in the post-zero-rate environment, corporate credit, and private market allocation sizing. The afternoon ESG forum covers regulatory integration (CSRD, SFDR, Solvency II), ESG-technology intersections, shareholder engagement practice, and impact investing strategy. The AF2I-L'Agefi survey presentation at 09:00 sets the quantitative frame for the entire day: participants receive the aggregate allocation data before it is published elsewhere, which calibrates all subsequent panel discussions against a shared factual baseline. ## What the AF2I-L'Agefi survey measures ### What is private capital investing in the context of French institutional portfolios? The AF2I-L'Agefi survey is the annual measurement of French institutional investor portfolio allocation across all major asset classes, conducted by AF2I and published in co-operation with L'Agefi. It covers the aggregate positions of participating French institutional investors in equities, fixed income, real assets, private capital, and cash equivalents. The survey is the primary reference source for data on French institutional asset allocation and is widely cited by asset managers, regulators, and financial press. Its release at the Institutional Day gives attendees advance access to the findings before the publication cycle. ## FAQ · Identity and audience ### What is the Institutional Day and who organises it? The Institutional Day is an annual full-day conference co-organised by L'Agefi, the French financial media group specialising in financial markets and asset management, and AF2I, the Association Française des Investisseurs Institutionnels. AF2I is the professional association representing French institutional investors, including insurance companies, pension funds, mutuelles, and endowments. The co-organisation model, financial media group plus institutional investor association, gives the event both editorial authority and direct community reach within the French institutional investment sector. ### Is the Institutional Day relevant to private equity and private capital managers? Yes, but as a counterpart context rather than a primary peer forum. Private capital managers attend to engage with French institutional investors as a concentrated group and to understand the aggregate allocation signals released in the survey. The event is the most direct annual access point to the French insurance, pension, and mutual sector in a structured conference format. GPs and debt fund managers seeking LP engagement with French institutional capital treat it as an important point in the spring calendar. The event is not structured around fund pitches or one-on-one meeting scheduling. ### Who is AF2I and what is its role in the event? AF2I is the Association Française des Investisseurs Institutionnels, founded to represent and provide community infrastructure for French institutional investors. Its membership includes insurance groups, pension bodies, mutual insurers, provident institutions, and endowments. AF2I conducts the annual survey on French institutional portfolios that is released at the Institutional Day. Its co-organiser role means the event draws directly from the AF2I membership as its primary audience, rather than relying solely on open registration. ### What is the significance of the survey release at this event? The AF2I-L'Agefi survey is the only comprehensive annual measurement of aggregate French institutional investor portfolio allocations across all asset classes. Its release at the Institutional Day before broader publication gives attendees advance access to market-level data. This creates a specific reason to attend beyond the conference programme content: institutional investors cross-check their own positioning against the aggregate findings, and asset managers use the data to calibrate their understanding of the French institutional market. ## The venue: Hôtel Shangri-La, Paris The Hôtel Shangri-La is located at 10 avenue d'Iéna in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, at the foot of the Trocadéro, a few hundred metres from the Eiffel Tower. The building, a former private mansion that housed Prince Roland Bonaparte, is now a five-star hotel with conference and banquet facilities. It has served as the venue for multiple editions of the Institutional Day. The 16th arrondissement is adjacent to the main concentration of French asset management firms in the 8th, and the venue is accessible from major TGV stations via direct metro lines. The venue has not been formally confirmed for the 2026 edition as of verification; it is recorded here based on its confirmed use in multiple previous editions. ## The organiser: L'Agefi L'Agefi is a French financial media group providing news, analysis, and data for financial markets, banking, asset management, and capital markets professionals. It publishes L'Agefi, the daily financial newspaper, and operates an events arm that produces professional conferences across the French financial sector. The Institutional Day is its principal annual event for the institutional investor community, complemented by L'Agefi Cercles gatherings in locations including Monaco and regional centres. L'Agefi's co-production with AF2I on the Institutional Day reflects a standard model in French financial events: media group providing editorial authority and logistics, professional association providing community access and the anchor data product (the survey). --- ## Editorial take *The Institutional Day is the one moment in the French calendar when the institutional investment community gathers as a community rather than as counterparties to a transaction: the survey release transforms a professional conference into a market reference event, giving it a function that no other event on the French financial circuit replicates.* ## How to register and what it costs Registration for the Institutional Day is managed through L'Agefi and AF2I channels. Pricing and registration details for the 2026 edition are not publicly disclosed as of verification. Institutional investors who are AF2I members may benefit from preferential access terms. For registration information, L'Agefi's events team and the AF2I website at af2i.org are the recommended contact points. No third-party ticketing platform has been documented for this event. ## FAQ · Access and practicalities ### Where can I find registration information for the 2026 Institutional Day? The AF2I website (af2i.org) published the 2026 edition date and provides event information. L'Agefi's website and events team are the registration contact for delegate passes. The Institut Louis Bachelier, which lists the event in its programme, may also carry practical information. As of verification, a direct registration URL for the 2026 edition has not been publicly listed. ### Is the event restricted to AF2I members or open to non-members? Previous editions have drawn participants from outside the AF2I membership, including asset managers, consultants, and PE fund professionals attending to engage with the institutional investor audience. No explicit member-only restriction has been documented for the conference component. AF2I membership may affect pricing or access tier. The survey release is the primary exclusive draw for the AF2I membership. ### Is this the same event as the former Journée Nationale des Investisseurs? The Institutional Day is the direct continuation of the event historically referenced as the Journée Nationale des Investisseurs by AGEFI. The name has been updated in recent editions to Institutional Day, reflecting a shift toward English-language branding consistent with other French financial events targeting international institutional audiences. AF2I and L'Agefi describe the same event under both names in different contexts. ## Resources | Resource | URL | |---|---| | AF2I event page | https://www.af2i.org/institutional-day-mardi-30-juin-2026/ | | L'Agefi | https://www.agefi.fr/ | | AF2I | https://www.af2i.org/ | | Institut Louis Bachelier listing | https://www.institutlouisbachelier.org/en/au-programme/evenements/institutional-day-de-lagefi-2 | --- **Last verified:** 2026-05-18 **Next review:** 2026-06-17 **Notes:** Date (Tuesday 30 June 2026) confirmed from AF2I website.
