The event brought together nearly 100 bank customers, as well as esteemed financial experts and top officials from Intesa Sanpaolo and Banca Intesa, who participated in a panel discussion to address some of the hottest global economic topics and their impact on the Serbian market, as well as trends in the investment fund industry.
