The Country Risk Conference is Coface's most prestigious annual conference commencing in Paris and attracting more than 1400 delegates from leading organisations. This event will be held in 12 different countries in 2010 and will have its inaugural event in Singapore on the 29th of June 2010.
The aim of our Singapore conference is to assess country and sector risks in Singapore and around the world. Our goal is to assist local and multinational businesses in their investment and exporting decisions.
During this half-day conference economists from Singapore and abroad, bankers and academics will examine the major trends of the global economy as well as the Asia Pacific region. Panel discussions will bring to light the impact of the major economic trends and its influences on business today.
We are confident that the Conference will fulfill its role of assisting Singaporean businesses in defining their international development strategy while ensuring that their focus remains on protecting their assets against the impact of turbulent global economic markets.
