The most sought after post-Budget forum, organised by the Daily FT in partnership with the Colombo University MBA Alumni Association, will be held on Monday, 13 November from 2.00 p.m. to 5.30 p.m. at the Oak Room of Cinnamon Grand Colombo.
This is the eighth post-Budget forum organised by the two organisations and for the second consecutive year global banking giant HSBC has come forward as its strategic partner.
Finance Minister Mangala Samaraweera will be the Chief Guest at the forum and Deputy Finance Minister Eran Wickramaratne will be the Guest of Honour.
Focusing on how the 2018 Budget and the Government’s macroeconomic policies can help achieve the twin goals of boosting exports and Foreign Direct Investments, the forum will have one of the most sought after panel of experts.
It includes the World Bank Country Director Idah Pswarayi-Riddihough, IMF Resident Representative Eteri Kvintradze and HSBC Sri Lanka and Maldives CEO Mark Prothero.
There will be heads of foreign-owned companies and local exporters as well at the forum, for which participation is available through prior registration.
