, 2016
Invitation to our first seminar on
RMB Internationalisation – Road to 2020
Dear members and friends of the Swiss-Chinese Chamber of Commerce
It is with great pleasure that I invite you to the Swiss-Chinese Chamber of
Commerce seminar on «RMB internationalisation – Road to 2020».
Friday, June 3rd
, 2016, 13h30 – 19h30
SIX Exchange Room
Selnaustrasse 30, 8001 Zurich
The seminar is focusing on China, its economic development and how the
Swiss economy is affected and can benefit. RMB internationalisation became a
major topic for Switzerland with the establishment of the Zurich branch of China
Constrcution Bank (CCB), the first Chinese bank opening an office in Switzer-
land which is offering commercial and trade finance banking services. CCB has
been licenced by the People’s Bank of China to clear RMB into Swiss Francs
and vice versa.
The program and speakers have been selected in order to provide an ideal mix
of information as well as networking opportunities. We do hope that you will join
us to share your insights with like-minded professionals from Switzerland and
China.
Attendance for the seminar is subject to a fee, members of the Swiss-Chinese
Chamber of Commerce can attend at a significantly lower fee. Please also look
for the early-booking rates.
I hope to have raised your interest to attend the seminar on «RMB
Internationalisation – Road to 2020» and am looking forward to meeting many
of you on June 3rd.
Best personal regards,
Felix Sutter
President
