    “The conference is going to bring a lot of experts together to discuss matters that are affecting this nation and therefore a lot of the dealers present and participants are going to learn a lot from these experts.”

    “If you look at this year’s conference theme, we trying to tackle issues that are affecting the nation in terms of the generation of forex, as dealers most of the time we are at the end where we are trading, we have foreign exchange market dealers that we trade in forex but tackling issues that are going to contribute to the generation of forex in the country,” said Mbingwa.
