SIAA2026 Conference – Tuesday 19 and Wednesday 20 May 2026
The SIAA Conference is the leading annual event for professionals working across stockbroking, investment advice, and financial services.
Over two dynamic days in Melbourne, delegates will come together to exchange ideas, hear from influential voices, and explore the forces shaping the future of our industry. The conference provides a platform to share evolving approaches to professionalism, ethics, and continuing education, while offering practical insights into policy developments, regulatory change, and broader market trends.
The event also offers valuable networking opportunities, connecting individuals and organisations from across the sector to spark new conversations and collaborations. At its heart, the conference is a celebration of the vital role advisers and brokers play in supporting Australia’s capital markets, building investor confidence, and strengthening financial trust.
To round out the experience, registered delegates are invited to Networking Drinks on the evening of Tuesday 19 May, held at the iconic Spice Market, located beneath the conference venue — a stylish, relaxed setting to unwind with peers.
