San Francisco-based Schwab is launching eight ETFs. Its N-1A filing became effective Thursday last week. The date listed on the prospectus is November 3.

Executives that will be on-site at Manhattan's Hilton Hotel include Schwab & Co. senior vice president Peter Crawford, who will talk about the firm's ETF strategy; Schwab Investment Management chief investment officer Jeff Mortimer, who will discuss the products and Schwab Advisor Services senior vice president Bernie Clark, who will cover ETFs and independent advisors.
