COMMITTEE EVENTS 2025

Tuesday, May 6th, we held a new session of the Finance and Capital Markets Committee of the Chilean-British Chamber of Commerce, hosted at the offices of our member HSBC.

On this occasion, we had the distinguished participation of Roberto Izikson, CEO of Cadem, who shared an in-depth analysis of Chile’s current political, economic, and social landscape in the lead-up to the Presidential Elections this November. 📊🗳️

During the meeting, Roberto addressed key topics such as public perception, the role of youth, political leadership, and the prevailing climate of insecurity—factors that shape the country’s current context.

💬 He also offered a clear perspective on the role of leadership beyond traditional ideological lines, highlighting the importance of both proximity and authority, and how security has emerged as a top priority for citizens today.

Last Thursday, April 3rd, the first session of the “CEO Vision” series, part of the Finance and Capital Markets Committee of the Chilean-British Chamber of Commerce, took place. 💹

📌 On this occasion, we had the distinguished participation of Renzo Vercelli, CEO of AFP Capital, who addressed key aspects related to the implementation of the pension reform in Chile.

“This is a mega-reform, with many implications. There are several issues with subheadings still to be defined, and a lot of fine print yet to be written. These definitions are extremely important,” the executive stated during the meeting held at the offices of NLD ABOGADOS.

📝 Don’t miss the next session of “CEO Vision,” a conversation series that brings together renowned speakers from across the corporate ecosystem, organized every two months by BritCham.

If you are part of a company or financial institution with innovative projects, don’t miss the opportunity to participate in the PIF! We are looking for those initiatives that are revolutionizing the financial world and generating a positive impact on our society.

The PIFs are a showcase to publicize your project, share your achievements and receive the recognition you deserve.
