Information about Geneva

Geneva : World Leader in Wealth Management

Geneva is well-known as a city of peace and international negotiation. It is reckoned to be the most active diplomatic center on earth, thanks to the presence of numerous international organizations (World Trade Organization, World Health Organization, International Telecommunications Union, Organization, European Organization for Nuclear Research, World Intellectual Property Organization, World Meteorological Organization, International Labor Organization, International Committee of the Red Cross, etc.).

But Geneva is also a thriving business city, which has put the notion of excellence to a high level. One may think about the famous Swiss watches, manufactured in Geneva (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Vacheron & Constantin, Chopard, Piaget, etc.), or the many "Fortune 100" companies, that have located their European or Middle-Eastern activities in the Lake Geneva area.

In the world of finance, Geneva is also considered as the world benchmark in private banking and asset management.

This tradition is deeply rooted, beginning in the 15th century. At that time (and still now), Geneva was a major trading city, with fairs attracting businesspeople from all over Europe. These fairs generated money transfers, payment orders and foreign exchange, between Geneva and several European cities. This activity led to the creation of many banks, which gave Geneva its reputation in the financial industry.

What's New - Key ConferenceThemes

Never has it been so important to share ideas and find solutions together. The forum takes place when the world is entering an unprecedented recession together with a severe financial crisis. Interestingly, the crisis had been very clearly predicted last year at Shorex Geneva as documented in an interesting article by Ian Allison dated 5 December 2007 called Doom and gloom at Geneva wealth conference where delegates at the Shorex Wealth Management conference were told that a recession was inevitable. Therefore, an important part of the programme is dedicated to the crisis and its impact on all aspect of wealth management and the financial sector. We are looking at:

- How to manage money in difficult times across the various investment vehicles
- Demystifying the crisis
- Analysing the roots of the crisis
- Supervision et regulations
- Lessons that we have learnt
- The subprime scandal and the UBS story

We are also exploring exciting sectors of socially responsible investments and biotechnology which will dramatically grow over the next few years.
