Derivatives World London: The Debates 2017 | FOW EVENTS | 6 December 2017 | Grange City Hotel, 8-14 Cooper's Row, London EC3N 2BQ, UK

FOW’s Derivatives World London: The Debates was launched last year as an overhaul of FOW’s long-running Derivatives World London event. The conference brings to the market a new format centered on two Oxford-union style debates and a series of unique presentations in a “Ted talks” format as well as two panels on the key topics of the day.

One of the debates last year was described by a delegate as “the best session I have ever seen at any event I have been to” and we received overwhelmingly positive feedback for the event with an average score of 4.6 out of 5 from delegates. The debates this year are on the vertical silo and the financial transaction tax. In addition, we will be running panels on what’s in store for 2014, and a review of three exciting emerging asset classes that could provide the next big trading opportunity.
