Global Perspectives on Geopolitical Shifts and Their Impact on Microfinance

This kick-off session will examine the impact of geopolitical tensions on cross-border financing, navigate sanctions and regulatory changes, rising energy costs and strategies for maintaining operations in volatile regions. We will specifically explore the impact of sanctions on MSMEs and the fragility of financial systems, always considering how these factors affect ordinary people's access to finance and economic opportunities.
