Forums in key markets planned as part of the Bank’s Wholesale Banking Leadership Series for 2009.
In line with Standard Chartered’s brand promise in leading by example to be the right partner to its clients, the Bank launched its first Financial Markets forum in Dubai.
Designed as part of the Bank’s Wholesale Banking Leadership Series, the forums focusing on financial markets aim to contribute to thought leadership in the industry in the face of ongoing unprecedented market challenges.
Exclusively for Standard Chartered clients, the event presents a robust programme that will provide participants with the valuable insight, outlook, commentary and networking opportunities to further understand the challenges and seize opportunities that are present in the current climate.
The forum will also provide the Bank’s clients a platform to interact directly with the Financial Markets senior management and product specialists, gaining local insights and global expertise while having their immediate concerns addressed.
Famed investor Jim Rogers who co founded the Quantum Fund will participate in the Dubai forum as a guest speaker. Hong Kong and India will host successive forums in coming months.
“In the current backdrop of uncertainty, we are pleased and proud to have created this opportunity to bring our senior management even closer to our clients in these key markets,” says Lenny Feder, group head of financial markets, Standard Chartered Bank. “At Standard Chartered, we are focused on working closely with our clients to provide world-class, innovative solutions for continued growth. In this challenging economic environment, more and more clients are relying on our experience and expertise to help them unlock and more effectively manage their risks and liquidity. These forums provide the perfect platform for us to demonstrate our client centric strategy and to share our expertise in providing solutions.”
