FinanceMalta Pledges Tree-Planting Initiative for Annual Conference Delegates

FinanceMalta has announced it will plant one tree for every delegate registering for its 18th Annual Conference, scheduled for 19-20 November 2025. The initiative, conducted in partnership with the national Tree 4 U Campaign, was unveiled by Graziella Grech, Chief Operating Officer of FinanceMalta, during the organisation's summer networking event.

The event, sponsored by Calamatta Cuschieri Moneybase, also recognised contributing sponsors, who received tokens of appreciation from FinanceMalta chairperson George Vella.

"Whereas last year's edition attracted 750 delegates, the fact that this year's edition promises to attract even higher numbers means that this campaign should truly leave a meaningful environmental legacy," Grech said.

The conference will be held at the Hilton Malta under the theme "Redefining Finance: A Quality-Driven Future for Malta."

"When we think of the future, we need to think of a sustainable one and this is what spurred FinanceMalta to launch this innovative initiative in collaboration with the national Tree 4 U Campaign," Grech said. "The growth of this important event is also being reflected in the number of organisations who every year, collaborate with us with their sponsorship. This year's annual conference has attracted a record 39 sponsors."

Notable international speakers include Maria Luís Albuquerque, EU Commissioner for Financial Services and the Savings and Investments Union; Jürgen Kreuz, cybersecurity and AI expert; Ed Vaizey, member of the House of Lords in the United Kingdom; Marjut Falkstedt, CEO of the European Investment Fund; and John Vella, Professor of Law at Oxford University.

The two-day programme features panel discussions and breakout sessions addressing sustainable finance, asset management, capital markets, and Malta's position in global insurance. The conference will conclude with a session examining reform and investment attraction, positioning Malta as a competitive financial jurisdiction.
