The Story of Asset Management: Infrastructure. We can afford to buy it. Can we afford to keep it?

Burns, Penny: - Dr. Penny Burns found herself uniquely positioned at the intersection of economics and engineering in 1982. Building on her foundation in experimental economics, she embarked on reshaping the field, and has captured those early years in this engrossing story. Another of her notable contributions was the establishment of the Strategic Asset Management newsletter in 1994, a publication that evolved into a vital resource for policy and practice.Dr. Burns continued to make her mark by introducing the International Asset Management Competitions in 1996, aimed at recognising excellence in the field. Additionally, her forward-thinking approach led to the creation of the first dedicated asset management website in 1998, making valuable insights accessible to a wider audience. Today, Dr. Penny Burns stands as the Chair of the Talking Infrastructure Association, envisioning the future of asset management and the imperative of developing 'future-fit' assets.
