GTR Asia Trade & Treasury Conference 2018 | Global Trade Review (GTR) | 4 September 2018 | Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre , 1 Bayfront Ave, Singapore 018971

Firmly established as the largest international event in the trade, treasury and commodity finance market, this flagship event is set to welcome over 1,000 delegates, enjoying the full support of Enterprise Singapore and the Ministry of Trade & Industry.
With trade now in the headlines more than ever before and with global concerns over protectionism and trade barriers continuing to escalate, this year’s gathering will consider both the key risks and primary opportunities from a geopolitical perspective, as well as the ongoing industry discussions over market disruption, new market entrants and the role of technology.
