Outlook 2018: What's Your Plan?
Geopolitics in 2018: Rough waters ahead?
At play are the Trump administration's unorthodox approach to global affairs and China's increasing influence and ability to shape regional (if not global) affairs in the coming year. And all this is happening while the region experiences a discomfiting emergence of a host of challenges including the instability in the Korean Peninsula. How will these affect the interests of Singapore's private sector?
SPEAKER: Dr Joseph Liow Chin Yong, Professor of Comparative and International Politics; Dean, Rajaratnam School of International Studies, NTU

SPEAKER: Jimmy Koh, Managing Director, Group Wholesale Banking/ Sector Solutions Group, Business Insights and Analytics, UOB

SPEAKER: Vasu Menon, VP and Senior Investment Strategist, Wealth Management Singapore, OCBC Bank
