AmCham Cambodia in cooperation with the US Embassy in Cambodia is proud to host a breakfast discussion with the Overseas Private Investment Corporation.

OPIC is the US Government’s development finance institution. It mobilizes private capital to help address critical development challenges and in doing so, advances US foreign policy and national security priorities.

Because OPIC works with the US private sector, it helps US businesses gain footholds in emerging markets, catalyzing revenues, jobs and growth opportunities both at home and abroad. OPIC achieves its mission by providing investors with financing, political risk insurance, and support for private equity investment funds, when commercial funding cannot be obtained elsewhere.

Established as an agency of the U. Government in 1971, OPIC operates on a self-sustaining basis at no net cost to American taxpayers.

We will have a short informal presentation plus Q&A/open discussion, followed by one-on-one meetings for any interested members.

The Speaker: MR. GEOFFREY TAN – Managing Director, Asia-Pacific
