PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The way companies access capital is changing. As banks face increasing regulatory pressures, tighter lending standards, and evolving risk requirements, CFOs are exploring new sources of financing—including private credit, alternative lenders, and emerging financial solutions.
What does this mean for finance leaders trying to fund growth, acquisitions, working capital needs, or strategic investments? The question is no longer just “Can we get financing?”—it’s “What is the right capital partner for our strategy?”
Join banking leaders, private capital experts, and experienced CFOs for a candid discussion on the evolving capital landscape. Explore the advantages and trade-offs of traditional bank financing versus private credit, what borrowers should consider when evaluating financing options, and how CFOs can build stronger relationships with capital providers.
This discussion will provide practical insights into choosing the right funding partner, preparing for today’s lending environment, and navigating new opportunities in corporate finance.
