Description
As more American associations hold meetings outside U.S. borders, they must figure out how to move and manage money overseas. Panelists will discuss managing currency risk and exposure, exchange rates and hedging techniques, banking relationships, the impact of VAT, what tax expenses are refundable, and cash management. Whether you're already holding events abroad or thinking about it, your finances must be in order. (co-hosted by M&E Section Council and the International Section Council)
