New York, NY ‚Äì Marcum Bernstein & Pinchuk LLP (“MarcumBP”), a top-ranked accounting firm with a substantial China practice, announced that it will hold the Global Leadership Forum on August 27th, 2015 at the luxurious Aman at the Summer Palace in Beijing. This elite one-day event will directly address the needs of Chairmen, CEOs, and CFOs of Chinese companies on the topics that have the greatest impact on their enterprise in a very rapidly changing market.
“In response to the demands of our clients, we have streamlined and upgraded our successful China Best Ideas Conference to provide a more exclusive and focused program in 2015. In the shadow of the Summer Palace these senior leaders will be able to network with their peers, hear from the most informed market participants, and hold confidential meetings with top decision makers all in one place,” said Drew Bernstein, co-managing partner of MarcumBP.
In 2015, Chinese companies face a number of important strategic choices. Following the record setting $25 billion IPO by Alibaba in 2014, several Chinese companies have successfully listed in the U.S. But an even greater number have announced plans to delist in New York and attempt to relist on the A-share market where valuations for technology companies have become stratospheric. All this is occurring against a background of major changes to overseas listing rules and further opening up of domestic financial markets to overseas investors.
The forum will include panel discussions on urgent subjects, including:
- IPO War Stories – what the most recent Chinese IPOs learned along the way
- Delist, Relist, or Stay the Course – how should management teams choose the right listing strategy for the long-term
- Short Sellers: Behind the Veil – a look inside the secretive, high-stakes world of short-selling
- The Great Opening Up ‚Äì a realistic look at the aims and challenges of China’s capital markets reform efforts
- Develop a “Go Out” Strategy ‚Äì how China’s most ambitious enterprises are building world-class teams and make bold moves overseas
- Comeback Stories – how companies can recover from setbacks in their financial results or governance to win back investor trust and shareholder value
“Our goal is to bring the most important players and brightest minds in the space to give Chinese top executives a stimulating and rewarding experience, that might open up new lines of thinking and new possibilities,” conclude Mr. Bernstein.
