Our team had a busy week connecting with industry leaders across three countries. We hosted three events over two days in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Guernsey from May 21-22.
On May 21 in Baar, Switzerland, Roi Lavi and Lev Yuriditsky participated in a panel discussion hosted by the Commodity Trading Club and WISTA Switzerland. They explored how global shifts are transforming commodity trading and trade finance and concluded the evening with a networking event, where lively conversations continued among industry peers.
We extend our sincere thanks to Sqope board member and ESG Advisor Roger H. Hartmann, and to Murat Seitnepesov of the Greater Caspian Association, whose support helped make the event a success.
The following day, May 22, brought Roi and Lev to Vaduz, Liechtenstein, where they were invited by the Liechtenstein Bankers Association to speak about 2024’s “super election year” and its impact on European financial regulation—an increasingly relevant topic in today’s shifting political climate.
Meanwhile, also on May 22, Nadia A. Ziani led our first Sqope breakfast panel in Guernsey, focusing on proliferation financing risk. She was joined by Tony Shiplee, Craig Gauvain, and Stephen Cummins for an in-depth discussion covering legal frameworks, reputational risks, and practical next steps for financial institutions.
We thank all our partners, speakers, and attendees for their engagement and thoughtful contributions throughout the week. Events like these reflect Sqope’s ongoing commitment to fostering meaningful dialogue and supporting the global financial community.
