Join the Asia Chapter for a presentation on "Trade Protectionism/Barriers: Implications for the Energy Industry." Over the past year, there have been significant developments in the region regarding trade protectionism, anti-corruption campaigns and territorial disputes that could have lasting effects on the energy industry. The panelists will review a wide range of these developments, including:

• Overview of the TPP11 and what it may mean for the energy sector
• Discussion of US-China tariffs and potential for a “trade war”, and sanctions against Russia and Iran – what are the implications for the energy sector?
• Regional corruption clampdowns and whether these are genuine and working to encourage foreign investment in the energy sector 
• Update on regional territorial disputes and implications on regional security and investment 

Registration is complimentary for members and S$25 for non-members, payable at the door. RSVP is required, as space is limited.
