PRESS RELEASE
Global Trade Review (GTR) returns to Cairo for the Egypt Trade & Export Finance Conference 2016
Offering expert opinion and lively debate on economic trends and Egypt’s business landscape, GTR’s Egypt Trade & Export Finance Conference 2016 gathered influential speakers from across the trade finance community, including local and international banks, financiers, leading corporates, lawyers and more.
Featuring an agenda focused on the country’s return to stability, prospects for trade and infrastructure development and sessions geared towards best practice guidance, the conference opened with a keynote from Angus Blair, Founder & President of the Signet Institute and Chief Operating Officer at Pharos Bank. A day of debate-driven discussion on opportunity hotspots and key business risks concluded with leading speakers providing their verdict on Egypt’s position within the regional trade and investment climate.
“Though the challenges impacting on the Egyptian market have been well documented, we’ve certainly seen an uptake in trade and investment activity, with mega projects such as the New Suez Canal providing a real buzz,” says Jeff Ando, GTR’s Head of Conference Production. “We’re hugely excited to have returned to Cairo for such an exciting day of discussion and networking, with so many business opportunities to be found here.”
Senior business representatives, trade finance professionals and the market’s primary decision makers provided their opinion and exchanged advice, not only during on-stage presentations but also during the regular networking breaks, making this conference a key platform for anyone looking to develop trade relationships in Egypt and clearly an event not to be missed.
“GTR’s event is now a regular item that features in the trade specialist calendar in UAE. It brings all related forces together in one location for discussion.”
