GTR’s Mauritius Trade Finance Conference returns to Mauritius in November, further establishing itself as the only trade finance event within the market.
As has been well documented, Mauritius retains its position as a key financial hub for Africa-Asia trade, and is increasingly seeking to play a role in intra-African trade, with its strong financial services sector and advantageous conditions for companies seeking to do business across a range of sectors, including agriculture, tourism, manufacturing, fisheries, textiles, business process outsourcing (BPO) and IT. Benefitting from firm governance, low tax rates, social and political stability and a key strategic geographical position, Mauritius is seeking to become ‘the gateway to Africa’.
Now in its third year and in line with these objectives, GTR’s event will gather the local and international markets to explore these exciting developments and share expertise. Join local and international trade institutions, financiers, corporates and many more for debate, discussion and networking.
