Agenda   

09:00  Registration
           Welcome coffee and tea 

09:30  Introduction 
           Opening remarks by Carlo Thelen, General Director Chambre de Commerce Luxembourg

09:45  Global Economic Outlook: Global expansion: robust yet fragile
            Gabriel Sterne, Head of Global Macro Research, Oxford Economics 

  • Inflation, unfavourable policies, and tightening liquidity make markets nervous
  • Pockets of credit risk and low bank profitability pose dangers to the financial system
  • Expansions don’t die of old age, but age can foster fragilities; warning lights are on amber
  • Trade wars quite damaging to date; but its the escalation scenarios that would be very damaging

10:30  European Economic Outlook: Domestic resilience keeps ECB on normalisation path
            Oliver Rakau, Lead Eurozone Economist and Chief German Economist, Oxford Economics

  • Strong labour market bolsters domestic demand outlook
  • ECB remains on course to the QE exit
  • Slowing global trade and US trade wars threaten exporters

11:15  Coffee break 

11:30  Equities, Asset Prices and Investment Strategies: A fork in the road for global investors
           Gaurav Saroliya, Director of Global Macro Strategy, Oxford Economics                  

  • After confidently buying the US equity dip this year, we see a fork in the road
  • One path leads to more synchronous growth and recovery in non-US markets (better than 50% probability)
  • But another leads to a further weakening of global risk appetite (40% probability)
  • But these probabilities aren’t static and the scores are shifting fast

12:15  Closing remarks
           Serge Allegrezza, General Director STATEC 

12:30  Drinks reception and finger food

b2fair event
Les salons de coopération offrent une formule simple permettant aux entreprises d’étendre leurs activités au-delà des marchés domestique et régional. Au lieu d’entreprendre une dizaine de voyages d’affaires pour trouver le bon contact, la participation à un salon de coopération permet à une PME/PMI d’avoir en un seul endroit plusieurs rendez-vous ciblés et individuels avec des entreprises intéressées par un partenariat. De plus, avec le concept « b2fair », les entreprises peuvent tirer parti de la combinaison judicieuse de foires internationales et de plates-formes de rencontres « b2b », par laquelle cette initiative se distingue.
