David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd., underlined that education and discipline are key to navigating global volatility.
SANTIAGO, CHILE, September 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- With over 3,000 professionals and more than 30 exhibitors in attendance, Money Expo Chile 2025 took place on 27 and 28 August at Espacio Riesco, establishing itself as a leading forum for analysing the economic outlook of Chile and Latin America. Within this context, EBC Financial Group presented an approach centred on financial education, disciplined risk management and strategic thinking as levers for local investors to turn volatility into informed and sustainable decisions.
A Challenging Backdrop for Chile
The discussions unfolded against a backdrop in which Chile continues to face inflationary pressures above the Central Bank’s target and tariff adjustments that weigh on the short term, while structural challenges remain in stimulating investment and productivity. In light of this, EBC Financial Group emphasised that mere access to trading platforms is not sufficient; the true differentiator lies in reading the context, managing risk, and acting with discipline.
“From Chaos to Strategy”: Key Insights From the Keynote
In his keynote address, “From Chaos to Strategy: How LATAM Investors Can Rise Above Uncertainty”, David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd., traced a journey through the crises that have shaped the region in recent decades — from the debt crises of the 1980s to the impact of the pandemic — in order to extract lessons of resilience that remain relevant today. He highlighted that international trade tensions, interest rate cycles and commodity volatility require investors to combine continuous education, a long-term vision and rigorous risk management strategies. At the same time, he pointed to opportunities linked to nearshoring, export diversification and LATAM’s role as a key global supplier of resources.
What David Barrett Said
“One of Latin America’s greatest strengths today lies in its improved fundamentals — from better-managed FX reserves and stronger economic governance to the global demand for commodities such as lithium, copper, soybeans, and oil.” stated David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd.
“Together, these elements provide a solid foundation that cushions external shocks and positions the region for sustainable long-term growth.” added David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd.
Engagement with The Financial Community
In addition to its role in the conference agenda, EBC Financial Group held meetings with media, clients and stakeholders from the financial ecosystem to deepen alliances and promote responsible trading practices. The firm’s presence at Money Expo Chile 2025 reinforced the importance of providing local support in Spanish, together with robust regulatory frameworks and analytical tools that raise the industry standard.
Commitment to Chile and Latin America
EBC Financial Group’s participation in Santiago aligns with its mission to empower investors in the region through practical education and strategic guidance. Since December 2023, the firm has trained more than 4,000 traders across LATAM through training sessions, webinars and local support — a model designed to transform mere access into decision-making capability and to turn uncertainty into sustainable opportunity.
