How do you think the Spanish Financial Forum can add value to the financial services industry in Luxembourg and its professionals?

For LEMMER LAW in particular and the Luxembourg financial services industry in general, the greatest added value of SFF is undoubtedly the networking between partners. SFF is also the connecting point for financial relations between Luxembourg and Belgium as well as Spain. It is also a great opportunity and a pleasure to be able to connect and exchange with operators and institutions in Spain, Luxembourg and Belgium through SFF.
