Myanmar is seeing positive signs of economic revival, with domestic and foreign investment improving in response to the opening up to foreign direct investment (FDI), of retail and wholesale trade as well as the insurance business.
Now in its 8th year, the Myanmar Global Investment Forum 2019 will offer participants an excellent opportunity to hear directly from the government on their latest economic agenda and reforms, as well as to have meaningful practical discussions with the key influencers, investors and corporates in Myanmar through our new interactive event format.
Topics to be covered will include:
• Projects and opportunities per sector, region and SEZ
• Infrastructure and energy projects and investment planning
• Myanmar Sustainable Development Plan, Project Bank and other reforms
• Prospects for FDI inflows
• Impact of the opening up of retail banking and the insurance business
• The growing role of development financial institutions
• New banking and financial regulation to increase credit to the private sector
• Local SME development opportunities
• Impact of changes in Myanmar’s retail industry
