Since 2008, Banco Santander has hosted this annual gathering, bringing together bankers, academics, policymakers, supervisors and other stakeholders for a dialogue on the role of business and banking in driving sustainable economic growth.
In a time of intense geopolitical uncertainty, transformative technological change and shifting trade dynamics, sustainable economic growth has never been more important to meet the demands of the future. Our conference will bring together leaders from across the public and private sector to examine the critical role policymakers, business and banking must play to drive that growth.
