NGPF Speaker Series: Few people have shaped how Americans invest more than Mike Latham — the former Head of iShares at BlackRock who helped build ETFs from a niche product into a multi-trillion-dollar industry. In this conversation, Mike will demystify ETFs and explain why they matter for every investor, especially first-time ones. He'll also share the story behind his climb from auditor to global business leader, with honest advice for anyone considering a career in finance.
