At the end of February, I attended the IFC’s 7th Global Partners Conference in Milan having been invited to speak as a panellist at the event. The title of the conference was “Striving in Turbulent Times”, which seemed very apt.
The mood was sombre as shown by the topics for various sessions:
“Is Volatility The New Normal?”
“The Spectre of Capital Flight.”
“Rethinking Risk in Emerging Market Banking and Trade.”
“Surfing the Commodity Supercycle: Time for a Crash Landing?”
“The Changing Landscape of Commodity Finance.”
“Agricultural Commodities: Adapting to the New Environment.”
I would be delighted to discuss or provide an overall view of any of the topics raised during the conference. Please do not hesitate to call or email.
Best regards,



Please wait...
