The US-China relation has been in turmoil as of recent. The trade war gave way to the US-China Phase One Trade Deal which has helped accelerate some opening in the financial services sector. However, as the relationship is further subjected to a lot of strain, doubts remain in the horizon about what fruits will bear this tension and what impact will the financial services sector take. This event tries to tackle this and much more, explaining in detail possible scenarios that we need to consider and be ready for. To present a detailed picture of the situation we will count with the expertise of Michael Hirson who leads Eurasia's Group's coverage of China.

Given the current difficult situation we are going through in China, the Chamber has decided to provide the members with a safe way to communicate with each other, get updates on what the Chamber is doing regarding the outbreak as well as any valuable developments. This is also a way to provide with personal feedback to each other on how each company is coping with the situation. Besides this, we will also approach some important lobbying issues to move the group forward.
