People everywhere are discussing foreign exchange, stock market crashes, inflation, unemployment and downturns in trade. The year 2008 looks to be a significant year for the global economy, with widely discussed reports on the outlook for the US economy likely to affect China's business environment. This is critical because it will heavily impact offshore investment, China's economy, and finance and property markets, and will pose a challenge for China's foreign exchange policy. Government officials are facing the dilemma of whether to raise or cut interest rates, and are wrestling with the choice between a fast- and slow-rising currency. Business professionals are negative about future uncertainties, but realize that cash and treasuries are crucial sectors to consider in the current environment. At a half-day conference, we will sketch out ways to better manage capital inflow and achieve maximum returns through cash and treasury management.

China Economic Review has invited top financial advisors and professionals to discuss these issues at a seminar entitled "Achieving a New Bottom Line by Repositioning Corporate Treasuries."
