Ukraine's Most Promising Sector?
Experts believe that agriculture is one of Ukraine's most promising sectors, in terms of growth rates and volumes as well as for attracting investors. However, despite its potential the sector is still relatively young and in need of further reforms, legislative amendments and infrastrucutre development. When we carried out extensive research with the market, you said that in 2012 the sector's major concerns will be:
- The impact of the land reform and other related reforms
- Other government and regulatory initiatives
- What will happen to grain trade and export? Will the tariffs be abolished?
- Measures to improve infrastructure in order to stimulate much-needed investments
- What growth strategies will the Ukrainian agro-holdings choose?
- Where can Ukrainian agrarian companies access finance
All these and many more most pressing industry questions will be answered by the Forum's elite speaker faculty and discussed in-depth by you!
BRIEIFING DAY for Ukrainian AGRARIAN CFO:
Finance is one of the cornerstones of every company, and in times of economic instability - when financing is scarce, and the need to keep costs low increases - its role becomes even more vital. With this in mind, for the first time ever at the Forum we are dedicating a whole day to the CFOs of Ukrainian Agro-holdings.
Over the course of the day you will have a unique opportunity to discuss a wide-range of topics, which captivate CFOs minds today including: Role of the CFO as a Driver of Growth in Ukrainian Agribusiness; Building an Efficient Finance Function; Managing Relationships with all Stakeholders and Partners; CFO’s practicalities in Preparing for the IPO and Life Post Listing; Involvement in the M&A Deals and Structuring Single Finance Function Post Merger; Understanding Various Tools in Raising Finance and Working with Lenders
