Conference Home

Global market turmoil has forced borrowers to reassess their funding options both domestically and internationally. As a new paradigm emerges, the trend is moving from a seller’s to a buyer’s market.

Where does your organisation stand in this new landscape? Are you prepared to take full advantage of new opportunities arising in the Latin American debt, equity and loan markets?

IFR’s Latin American Issuers’ Conference will review the financing options available to market players in the region. It will bring together borrowers, banking underwriters and lenders, and investors involved in Latin American capital markets.

Why attend?

  • Understand how borrowers see their position in the market, what they want and why they want it
  • Gain access to industry decision makers and hear their perspective first hand
  • Get the full picture of the current market situation and allow yourself to make intelligence led choices and secure an advantageous position
  • Access to the real stories and options of credit choice for borrowers from those who are issuing debt now
