The annual Global Borrowers & Bond Investors Forum will be returning to London on 19-20 June 2020.
2018 is well underway with January already behind us. For some it came with a bump, as investors dealt with the introduction of Mifid II. For others, benign conditions provided the perfect backdrop for making a head start on their funding programmes for the year.
In 6 months’ time Euromoney Conferences will be back in London for the 27th Global Borrowers & Bond Investors Forum to discuss market conditions, investment outlooks and the biggest issuance pipelines globally.
We have conducted extensive research to create an exciting and informative agenda which will keep you busy throughout the two days. Just some of the topics we will be discussing include:
The future of asset management
Supranationals and agencies: the development objectives
Facing a harsh new environment for corporate funding
Bank funding strategies and the opportunities for bank capital investors
Ethical issuing and investing and ESG 2.0: what is it?
Fintech: risks, opportunities but above all: change
Funding the State – new approaches to the national debt
Black swans: what could possibly go wrong?
