European market players gather to discuss latest updates and promote the factoring industry
Following the whirlwind that the global markets have gone through over the last two to three years, people are wanting to meet up and find out what has changed and where do we go from here. With the crisis, it was confirmed that Factoring is the one of the best methods when it comes to trade finance, assisting in working capital and protection, especially for SMEs.
The factoring market in Europe has always been strong and resilient, representing around 68% of the total, with €1,842bn in volume for 2020. This will only increase as our markets move into the post-covid era. FCI and EUF represent over 98% of all European market players and have organised their annual EU Factoring Summit for the seventh year, taking place on 4-5 April both online and in Rome, Italy.
The purpose of this event is to provide a unique opportunity for Industry leaders to network and address topics that really matter. The programme will update and educate attendees on topics such as,
- An update on the most recent evolutions on the European factoring scene
- Understanding the definition of Default Regulations and what the implications & actions are
- What the factoring industry is like in Italy
- A report from EUF Technical Committees on what roused the factoring industry in 2021
- What the consequences of the late payment directive are
- What some of the key take-aways are for the updated Legal Study
- Where technology and fintech developments are headed
- What the digital finance agenda of the EU Commission is
All of these topics will be presented, discussed and debated on by leading industry experts. Some of the confirmed speakers include the likes of, Magdalena Barczak (Economic and Statistics Committee), Daniela Bonzanini (FCI), Gaia Cioci (CRIF), Antonella Correra (European Commission), Louis-Marie Durand (Euralia), Fausto Galmarini (Assifact Italy & EUF), Vitor Graça (ALF), Françoise Palle Guillabert (EUF), Diego Tavecchia (PRC Committee), Magdalena Wessel (Legal Committee) and more.
This edition will explore a new way of conferencing through a hybrid format. We will be hosting the physical event in Rome, Italy and will be live streaming it through the Cvent digital event platform. Both this platform and the official FCI App will be available to all attendees, giving everyone the best opportunity to network, no matter where they are participating from.
