Round Tables

The HedgeNordic series of round table discussions aim to bring together industry professionals and experts in their field in a vivid discussion. The setup allows to look at and discuss a specific topic within the financial industry from various different angles, and hear of different opinions and approaches.

The round table discussion is hosted without an audience, behind closed doors. The combination of having a relatively small, intimate group of individuals for the discussion behind closed doors in combination with a wide circulation of a summary of the discussion in a convenient read-up paper to a relevant audience in the Nordic region allows for both professional and personal relationship building, as well as broad communication and branding.
