The Banking & Securities Working Group will hold Chair elections on March 30.

The Chairperson and Vice Chairs play a crucial role in driving the Working Group, including a leading role in the drafting of the annual Position Paper, in communicating key messages to Chinese and European government authorities, and in steering activities of the Working Group. The ideal Chair and Vice Chair is a senior industry representative with relevant expertise and government contacts who has the time and willingness to support the Working Group for 12 months. Previous participation in the Working Group is essential. Before applying for the position of Chair or Vice Chair, we recommend that you obtain approval from your company.

In current uncertain economic times, China and Shanghai are taking further actions to open up the financial system and become a more attractive place for international investment. Treasury & financing has traditionally been a highly restricted and regulated area in the Chinese business environment. While cross-border cash pools can offer an efficient way to move RMB and foreign exchange between group companies, there are plenty different models available which do face different regulatory frameworks and may come with different tax considerations. This seminar shall cut through that complexity, provide you with a hands-on overview about different cash pool schemes based on the latest regulatory changes and consider alternative treasury tools for your application.

The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to invite HSBC and PwC to address relevant aspects around setting up and operating cross-border cash pools.

Given the current difficult situation we are going through in China, the Chamber has decided to provide the members with a safe way to communicate with each other, get updates on what the Chamber is doing regarding the outbreak as well as any valuable developments. This is also a way to provide with personal feedback to each other on how each company is coping with the situation. Besides this, we will also approach some important lobbying issues to move the group forward.
This is a Joint Working Group Meeting being lead by Banking & Securities but open to both Consumer Finance and Non-banking Financial Institutions and Insurance Working Groups.
