About the event
Dear AFS Member,
The Asian Financial Society is pleased to invite you to an in-person panel discussion on Capital Market Trends and Outlook for 2026, taking place at 6:00 pm EDT on Thursday, July 20, 2026.
As the second half of 2026 begins, global capital markets are evolving rapidly. The AI investment boom continues to drive spending on data centers and digital infrastructure, the IPO market is reopening, M&A activity has accelerated, private credit is expanding, and digital assets are becoming a larger part of the financial ecosystem.
This panel will examine what these trends mean for investors, finance professionals, and the global economy, and where capital is likely to flow next.
Potential topics for discussion include:
• The outlook for global capital markets in the second half of 2026
