Capital Markets Game Changers: Future of Finance Pitch Competition with IFC-Milken Institute Alumni (Invite only)

Wednesday, May 7, 2025
08:00 AM - 09:30 AM
Beverly Hilton - Brighton

Over the past decade, alumni of the IFC-Milken Institute Capital Markets Program have been building the future of financial markets across 60-plus developing and emerging economies. As they design policy and interact with each other, these young leaders have come up with new ideas for policy reforms, innovative funds, and financial structures. These include integrating digital assets in local capital markets, enhancing retail participation in ETFs, and launching sustainable bond issues. Which concepts will have the most impact on inclusive growth and investor attraction? Which can realistically be implemented, at what cost, and where? From Brazil and Peru to Cambodia and Malawi, our program's most recent graduates will pitch their detailed plans to a celebrity panel of leaders from the development and business community. In this interactive session, we will ‘kick the tires’ on their proposals and identify which ones are implementation- or investment-ready.
