Hon. Sergio Marchi is currently in Shanghai and will be speaking at the the 4th Annual Wealth Management & Private Banking Conference. Here is an excerpt of his remarks:

Our Pace Global Advantage (PGA) delegation, including CEO, Al Pace, has been in this fast-moving region for the last two weeks.  I had the privilege of speaking at the China Overseas Investment Summit in Hong Kong – an exciting event marking the tenth anniversary of China’s entry into the World Trade Organization. We also travelled to Beijing and Chongqing as part of the Canada-China Business Council Trade Mission, and held a series of other business meetings to solidify PGA’s plans to establish a presence in the region.

This conference in Shanghai culminates our trip in great style. Shanghai is such a cosmopolitan and energetic world class city – it has come to epitomize the rise of China and Asia — with its extraordinary wealth creation capacity across all classes.
