Cashbook Software at the 2017 European Financial Forum

Greg Coulter, CEO of Cashbook Software attended the second European Financial Forum held at Dublin Castle on 24 Jan, 2017. The Forum brought together international and Irish industry leaders, policy makers, regulators and subject matter experts to explore the various forces including political, social, economic and technological that are shaping our global financial services industry. This year’s European Financial Forum had added significance following the UK referendum on EU membership and of course the newly elected administration in the United States.

The Forum considered a broad agenda through a combination of keynote address, on-stage interviews and panel discussions moderated by a team of the respected journalists and commentators from the Financial Times. Topics included: the impact and likely industry response to Brexit, the view from the markets, investment challenges and opportunities in a low interest rate environment, identifying and managing risk and the increasingly important role of innovation in financial services.  This years’ Forum also included perspectives from China courtesy of senior representatives from the China Investment Corporation (CIC) and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB).

The 2017 event provided critical insights on the latest industry trends and developments and Cashbook Software thoroughly enjoyed meeting up with industry colleagues as well as the keynote speeches. Cashbook looks forward to continued cooperation with the IDA & Enterprise Ireland and is very much committed to the initiatives & plans as outlined in the IFS 2020 programme.
