Scottish Development International (SDI) will be promoting Scotland to leading members of the international financial services community at City Week 2012.
The event, which last year attracted 650 delegates from 40 countries, is supported by UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) and offers key decision makers the chance to explore the key challenges facing the global industry.
Widley regarded as the top event of its kind in the UK, City Week offers SDI the opportunity to showcase Scotland's financial services expertise to a global audience.
SDI will focus on the financial services potential of all areas of Scotland while representatives from Edinburgh and Glasgow will be on hand to explain the strengths of the country's two main financial centres.
SDI will also host a drinks reception which will include an address by Crawford Gillies, chairman of Scottish Enterprise.
City Week 2012 will feature keynote speeches by the UK's Foreign Secretary, William Hague MP, and Douglas Flint, chairman of HSBC group.
International speakers from Brazil, Canada, China, the European Union, India, Kazahhstan, Morocco, Russia, Singapore, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates will also take part.
The event includes two days of cutting edge conferences, seminars and exclusive social gatherings, with an optional third day of one on one networking meetings.
