Turkish Derivatives Conference

Once the capital of the powerful Ottoman Empire, Istanbul still remains as the commercial, historical and cultural pulse of Turkey. As an important business center between the east and west, cosmopolitan Istanbul is growing to become a regional and global financial center. This makes Istanbul an ideal location for the Turkish Derivatives Conference, being organized by the Institute for Financial Markets and the Futures Industry Association.

Turkish Derivatives Conference will bring together global financial institutions, exchanges, trading firms and professionals to discuss industry trends, hear expert views on key issues, improve market skills, learn about practices, and showcase new products. The event will feature panel discussions with important industry leaders and educational workshops. Dr. Vedat Akgiray, Chairman of the Capital Markets Board (SPK), and Chairman of IOSCO’s Emerging Markets Committee, will be the opening keynote speaker. The conference also will include a tradeshow and networking opportunities to build high-value connections with industry professionals.

Sponsorship can be an effective tool for increasing booth traffic, improving your company's name recognition and enhancing your reputation in the futures industry. Sponsorship opportunities for the International Derivatives Expo will be available on a limited, first-come, first-served basis.
