Baader Bank AG: Helvea Swiss Equities Conference 2014 – Swiss companies coping well with current challenges
Helvea Swiss Equities Conference 2014 – Swiss companies coping well with current challenges At the 10th Helvea Swiss Equities Conference, which ended today in Bad Ragaz / Switzerland, most of the 52 participating companies from Switzerland gave an optimistic outlook for 2014. In general, Swiss companies seem to be coping well with the current challenges such as the strong Franc, weak economic growth in Europe and low interest rates. In many cases this was the result of recent restructuring programmes undertaken in the wake of the financial crisis that are now bearing fruit in terms of improved business mix or a lower cost base. While some groups saw some signs of improvement in the outlook for the European economy they were noticeably more optimistic regarding Asia and North America. Analysts of Helvea and Baader Bank expect to see their forecasts for corporate outlook largely confirmed during the forthcoming reporting season. Helvea’s two-day Swiss Equities Conference is an established event with Swiss companies. ‘Roughly 300 participants from 14 countries attended this year’s event’, said Oliver Riedel, Chief Executive Officer of Helvea. ‘We remain committed to continue this tradition now that Helvea has become an integral part of Baader Bank Group’, so Riedel. The next Helvea Swiss Equities Conference will take place in early January 2015 – once again in Bad Ragaz.
