Les Rendez-vous de l’Eco: a conference on the theme of “Business financing in a crisis context” at the Faculty of Economics
As part of the "Rendez-vous de l'Eco" series, the Faculty of Economics at the University of Montpellier, in partnership with Midi Libre, is organizing a conference on the theme: "Business financing in a crisis context" on October 12, 2023, starting at 6:30 p.m., at the Richter campus of the Faculty of Economics.
Why this conference?
The COVID health crisis plunged the economy into a severe recession in 2020, which affected the operations and financial structures of businesses. Companies are now having to deal with the consequences of a major energy and inflationary crisis. In this context, what is the current situation for businesses, how is bank financing evolving, and are banks also being impacted by this series of difficulties?
