Smartkarma Webinar | ASEAN Rebound: Southeast Asia's New Opportunity

For our next Webinar, we are delighted to welcome back Insight Provider Manu Bhaskaran. In the aftermath of the COVID crisis, Southeast Asia is back on a path to growth, although the continuing instability following the Russian invasion in Ukraine is having its own impact. As a keen, long-time observer of the region, Manu lays out the economic factors and key trends breeding new opportunities in ASEAN, which foreign investors need to know about, and weights the region's prospects given the fundamental shifts created by the war in Ukraine.

The webinar will be hosted on Wednesday, 9 March 2022, 17:00 SGT/HKT.
