BMCC – STANDARD CHARTERED: REGIONAL ECONOMIC OUTLOOK & FX STRATEGY

This unprecedented crisis has brought about a worldwide economic standstill. No individual or business is truly prepared or protected. From a single point of origin, the outbreak has spread to affect the major economies and global superpowers of this era.
