Our Vision

To maintain our position as Asias most eminent platform that attracts the most distinguished
senior professionals and the brightest students to discuss critical issues and trends in the finance
industry.







Co-Chairman Message

Last year, Asias economic landscape underwent tremendous changes, as a result of shifts in
political leaderships and economic policies. These effects, coupled with the seemingly never-
ending sovereign debt crises in Europe, culminate in a challenging global landscape for
businesses as well as individuals trying to navigate their way to success. With the United States
teetering on the edge of recovery, Asia appears to have the most optimistic outlook for investors in
the near future. Outside of the traditional powerhouse economies in Asia such as China and
Japan, the economic liberalisation of countries such as Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand and
ndonesia are but a few themes that all of us can look to capitalise upon.

n this dynamic and exciting environment, every challenge presents an opportunity for those with
the courage to seize them. As students, while studying for our degree, we must also continue to
be aware of the workings of the real world and latest industry trends to better position ourselves for
the future. This conference aims to offer insights and perspectives that will definitely play important
roles as you make your first foray into the financial industry.

The Asia nvestment Banking Conference 2013 is the 5
th
edition of a growing initiative by a group
of students from the London School of Economics and Political Science. As Asias largest student-
run conference focused on Finance and nvestment Banking, we stand proud to be part of the
developing ecosystem. This years five main conference themes are namely: Mergers &
Acquisitions, Private Equity, Capital Markets Origination, Perspectives on China & Financial
Markets. As a conference completely organised with full autonomy by students, we hope that this
conference would serve to address the interests and curiosity of all our delegates of the recent
developments in various aspects of the financial industry.

On behalf of the organising team and our sponsors, it is with great pleasure that we welcome you
to this Conference and we hope all of you will benefit from the line-up of events and speakers we
have prepared for the next two days.
