FIRE Starters: Hot Topics in the New World Order
29 Apr 2020
Location: 12.00pm - 1.00pm Virtual Event (Zoom) Members: FREE - Book by 29 Apr

Highlights
These are unprecedented times - there's been an overnight shift to remote working for almost the entire population.
Many businesses are furloughing staff and it remains to be seen how many businesses will re-open on the other side.
Long established laws are being suspended and re-written overnight in order to help businesses survive. The onus to unravel and re-establish what is left will fall on FIRE practitioners.
We will be looking at the current issues in a quickFIRE format from across the spectrum of asset recovery practitioners.
