The Baltic Playbook: Response to a Changing World

SEB CFO Forum 2025

Paragraphs

SEB CFO Forum 2025 will take place on October 15 and it is the most ambitious event for SEB's clients – financial directors and managers.

Theme of this year's CFO Forum is "The Baltic Playbook: Response to a Changing World". Traditionally, macroeconomic prospects are shared by the top players in the banking industry, and we will learn about the current events in the field. Additionally, under the guidance of experienced experts, we will explore how the Baltic region can leverage its strengths - innovation, resilience, and cooperation - to reinforce its position in the global landscape.

Even though the global situation remains uncertain, it also creates new opportunities for the Baltic countries. Our region’s strength lies in its ability to adapt, think strategically, and stay driven toward progress. A dynamic environment fosters innovation and cooperation, enabling the strengthening of both the economy and security, which can serve as a foundation for sustainable growth and the advancement of our role on a global scale.
