9th Alternative and Receivables Finance forum 2023 | BCR Publishing | 27 November 2023 | Clifford Chance, 10 Upper Bank St, London E14 5JJ, UK

Accessibility, innovation, efficiency and social impact have become the most looked for goals of modern financial services. Alternative and receivables finance is the industry which has all these ‘must have’ features on offer, hence it will continue to gain more traction in the coming years. Taking a global perspective, the Alternative and Receivables Finance forum returns this fall for a one-day event focusing the latest trends and developments in the industry, including blockchain, tokenization, BNPL, DEFi, risk mitigation, regulation and social impact. It will bring together leaders in alternative finance to explore how the industry is developing and growing following a year of uncertainty. More information to come.
