2020 has certainly been a challenging year. The COVID-19 pandemic not only posed an immense threat to the health and vitality of the global populace, it also brought about far-reaching disruptions to the global markets as well as accentuated the need for reshaping economic and social dynamics. The AFF, as Asia’s premier forum for global leaders in government, finance and business at the beginning of each year, is uniquely positioned for examining the challenges at hand and strategising the road to recovery and beyond.

The AFF has gone from strength to strength, with the most recent edition attracting more than 3,500 financial and business leaders, as well as leading investors and entrepreneurs, from 48 countries and regions to exchange insights and intelligence, establish connections, and explore business and investment opportunities. 

The AFF in 2021 will continue to uphold these three pillars through a comprehensive virtual platform. In-depth discussions on topical issues such as global economic outlook, responsible and impact investment, asset and wealth management, insurance, risk management and green finance, alongside a series of InnoTalks and Fireside Chats covering the latest in innovation and technology (including fintech, 5G and cyber security), will drive thought leadership and global discourse, while the Fintech Showcase and the FintechHK StartupSalon will present the latest solutions and next-gen business ideas from worldwide financial institutions, technology firms and startups. The AFF Deal Flow Matchmaking Session and the InnoVenture Salon will return to provide business matching and capacity building arrangements for investors, project owners and entrepreneurs across all regions and sectors, while worldwide investment agencies will also return to the Global Investment Zone to showcase the latest opportunities.

The AFF 2021 will again feature some of the world’s most influential leaders and distinguished speakers, including:
