Now is the time to expand your international sales.   A growing international economy and declining U.S. dollar provide U.S. companies with a competitive advantage in markets around the world. Emerging markets in particular offer potentially lucrative opportunities. To help you leverage these opportunities, we're bringing together representatives from the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank, M&T Bank, and the U.S. Commercial Service to discuss global interest rate trends and how to structure financing for your company's exports.

Communicate directly with market experts.  R. Andrew Bauer, Economist, Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond - Baltimore Branch; Clement K. Miller, CFA, Administrative Vice President, International Trade Finance, M&T Bank; and Bill Burwell, Director, U.S. Export Assistance Center Baltimore will discuss export financing and respond to your specific questions. You'll learn about U.S. Federal Reserve interest rates, London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), export finance options for U.S. exporters, the impact of financial market fluctuations on U.S. exports, and trends in U.S. exports to emerging markets.

Who should attend? CEOs and international export managers.
