Good morning. I am Byun, Dong Shik, President & CEO of the Finacial News.
We sincerely welcome all distinguished guests from home and abroad to the 20th Seoul International A&D Conference. In particular, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Director Lee Bok-heon, the Financial Supervisory Service Director, for willingly participating in the time spent fighting with the village, Na Jae-cheol, Chairman of the Financial Investment Association, Son Byung-doo, Chairman of the Korea Stock Exchange, and Ahn Hyo-joon, Head of National Pension Fund Management Division, for their grace. Financial News, a ‘first class economic newspaper’, has been hosting the Seoul International Derivatives Conference for the past 20 years, proactively forecasting changes and challenging opportunities in the alternative and derivative markets, and listening to the opinions of experts. In response to the rapidly changing financial investment environment, the name of the event was changed to "Seoul International A&D (Alternative & Derivative) Conference" in 2018. Through this event, which is proud of its history and tradition, we are proud that we have contributed to reestablishing the status of alternative and derivative markets in the Korean capital market. However, it is true that it is difficult to make a profit with only stocks and bonds, which are traditional assets, as the internal and external fluctuations have increased recently. In fact, some large companies n Korea and the IB industry and the financial investment industry are paying attention to a variety of alternative assets such as real estate, real estate, and infrastructure overseas, beyond Korea. As we all know, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is causing the world economy to face a serious inflation crisis. The global stock market, virtual assets, and real estate have lost their way due to aggressive interest rate hikes and austerity measures in major countries such as the United States, and it is difficult to find suitable investment destinations. Therefore, at this year's conference, we would like to have time to explore promising investment opportunities by meeting with domestic and foreign experts under the big theme of 'Where are the emerging alternative investment destinations in the era of inflation?' In Session 1, Adrian Mukhalov, Partner of Actis, a private equity management firm specializing in British alternative investment, gave a keynote lecture under the title of ‘Alternative Investment is an Investment Solution in the Era of Inflation’. We hope that you will quickly reveal why infrastructure is so important to inflation. In addition, we expect that various lecturers including Richard Miller, CEO of TCW's credit division, Sung-Joo Lim, Vice President of SK Ecoplant, and Dong-Geun Lee, Executive Vice President of Samjong KPMG, will provide strategies and implications for alternative investment suitable for the era of inflation. In addition, in Session 2, various experts are expected to present their opinions on the need for and the current status of the carbon credit futures market, which has recently been attracting increasing attention. While major countries around the world are making efforts to accelerate the realization of carbon neutrality, I have no doubt that the opening of the carbon credit futures market will greatly contribute to the vitalization of carbon credit trading. It is hoped that this conference, which brings together major and institutional investors who move the domestic capital market, will serve as a meaningful place to become a compass for alternative investment in the era of inflation. The sweltering heat of summer and the rainy season have finally come to an end, and the season of fruitiness, autumn, is fast approaching. We wish everyone in attendance health and happiness. Thank you.
