The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) will hold its twelfth annual London "Israel Opportunity" investor conference in conjunction with the Israel Embassy in London and the UK Israel Business Council.
The conference brings the heads of leading Israeli companies together with key European investment houses with the aim of exposing Europe's financial community to the vast potential engendered in Israel's economy and capital market.
Prof. Stanley Fischer, Governor of the Bank of Israel, will deliver the keynote speech, reviewing Israel's economy, and another presentation will be given by Philipp Härle from the consulting firm, Mckinsey & Co.
Six Israeli public companies, all of which are constituents of the TA-25, MSCI and FTSE share price indices, will present at the conference:
Bank Hapoalim – Yair Seroussi, Chairman of the Board
Bank Leumi – David Brodet, Chairman of the Board
Gazit-Globe – Chaim Katzman, Chairman of the Board
Teva Pharmaceutical – Eyal Desheh, CFO
Israel Chemicals – Eli Amit, SVP Economics
Mellanox Technologies – Eyal Waldman, CEO
"The London Conference has become a tradition of which we are particularly proud, and is part of TASE activity to expose Israeli companies to foreign investors", remarks Ester Levanon, TASE CEO. "Israel's economy is recognized as one of the strongest, dynamic and most resilient in the world. The companies presenting at the London Conference represent the Israeli economy and the opportunity awaiting Europe's financial community to take part in it".
During its stay in London, the Israeli delegation has been invited to take part in the opening bell ceremony at the London Stock Exchange and will participate in a Gala Dinner organized by the UK Israel Business Council.
