At the beginning of December, Frankfurt will host the traditional investors' conference entitled "European Capital Markets’ Union & the new Green Deal" this year. One day before the conference, also the annual general meeting and sessions of committees of the European Federation of Investors and Financial Services Users will take place (Better Finance). One of the pivotal investors' meetings in the EU, which is normally attended by hundreds of guests from all over the world, is organized by the German shareholders' association (DSW) and Better Finance every two years. In order to be staged efficiently, the conference will take place in Frankfurt, and not in Wiesbaden this time as the attendees will be able to attend the event both in person for invitees only, as well as virtually.
From the perspective of the Germany's Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the issues of the banking union and capital market union will be initially addressed by the State Secretary at the German Federal Ministry of Finance, Mr. Jörg Kukies, to be followed by multiple panels and lectures about company transformation, sustainable and active investments, challenges of the capital markets union, virtual general meetings of shareholders, etc. One of the prominent speakers will also be European Commissioner for Financial Stability, Financial Services and the Capital Markets Union, Ms. Mairead McGuinness, European Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Didier Reynders, and Executive Director of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), Ms. Verena Ross. Nevertheless, apart from the most prominent representatives of the European and national institutions at the conference, the viewpoints were shared by numerous influential decision makers and representatives of management of global corporations such as Allianz, Blackrock, Deutsche Börse, Deutsche Post, Henkel, NASDAQ, SAP, UniCredit Bank AG, etc. Many of them will be participating this year as well.
As an invitee, the event will be attended in person by the VZMD President, Mr. Kristjan Verbič, who is also a member of the Executive Board of Better Finance. The VZMD with its international business-investor programs Invest to Slovenia (investo.si) and International Investors` Network (investo.international) has been attending the high profile biennial conference actively for the last 15 years. This time too, the activities and opportunities brought by investo.si and investo.international will be presented.
Furthermore, despite aggravated epidemiological situation, the VZMD wants to ensure strong and active presence of its business-investor programs at international events. Even in these times either, multiple presentations were held mostly at virtual conferences, but also in person at some events. If you would like to take part in the events and activities, please contact the program coordinator for investo.si at the VZMD, by phone at +386 31 770 771 or e-mail info@investo.si.
