Les Rendez-vous de l'Eco: a conference on "Corporate financing in a context of crises" 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 of "Corporate financing in a context of crises" on October 12, 2023, starting at 6:30pm, 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, affecting the operations and financial structures of companies. These companies must now face the consequences of a major energy and inflationary crisis. Against this backdrop, what is the current situation of companies, how is bank financing evolving, and are banks also impacted by this series of difficulties?
