The European Debt Crisis:
Economic Impact on Asian Businesses
Date : 28 June 2010, Mon
Time : 9.00 am- 12.00 pm
Venue : SBF Seminar Room 2
(21st level, Keppel Towers)
Fee per pax : SBF & Supporting Org. Members - S$45.00

Despite the 750-billion rescue package by the European Union (EU), the Euro continues to slum to a new 14-month low against the US dollar. Bankers had warned that the financial turmoil in Europe could pose a risk to Asian growth. How badly will Asia and our businesses be hit by the European crisis? Will the Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain (PIGS) crisis change the view of our businesses towards the current & potential business opportunities in Europe?

SBF is pleased to organise this update seminar where the business and thought leaders will discuss about the current economic and political situation in Europe, its potential impact on Asian businesses. The session will also assess the viability of Asian ventures to Europe amid persistent concerns over Europe's debt crisis.

Who should attend?

Companies with presence in Europe or with interest in the Europe market are welcome to attend the seminar. Business and thought leaders are invited to network and meet with Singapore companies.
