Finance at the Crossroads of Eras: Highlights from “Finance Fair 2025” in Minsk
More than 250 Participants, 25 Speakers and Dozens of Insights — Outcomes of the “Finance Fair 2025” Conference
On 23 October, the anniversary conference “Finance Fair 2025” took place in Minsk — a key platform for dialogue between business and the financial sector, organised by the REVERA legal group and the investment and consulting company ASER.
Record Attendance and a Packed Programme
Interest in the event has been growing year on year. This time, all records were broken: more than 250 participants — business owners, CFOs and investors — gathered on one platform to discuss current tools for raising capital and developing business.
The conference was divided into thematic discussion blocks, enabling participants to obtain targeted responses from subject-matter experts, exchange views and discuss real-life case studies.
At the start of the event, Elena Lipinskaya, Director of the Centre for Lending and Digitalisation of Active Products and Processes at BNB Bank, delivered a welcome address:
“We see the practical impact of the Finance Fair: solutions are born here that accelerate companies’ growth. We always stand with business, and our task is not only to provide flexible financing for a variety of needs, but also to share our expertise to help entrepreneurs make the right strategic decisions in today’s market.”
Leading representatives of the financial market contributed to shaping the programme and expert discussions, including: ASER, REVERA, BNB Bank, Development Bank, MTBank, the Belarusian Currency and Stock Exchange (BCSE), the Representative Office of the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB), FinTech Invest, WhiteBird, Tsifra Broker, Evrotime, SBL-Leasing, Agroleasing, R1 Leasing, BelVEB-Leasing, Aigenis, Finap24, BIK Ratings and other companies forming the country’s financial ecosystem.
The General Partner of the event was BNB Bank.
Experts noted that in the coming years digitalisation and sustainable development will become the key drivers of growth in the financial sector — from the debt market to cryptocurrencies.
Particular attention was paid to the need for legislative changes, primarily in taxation, which could stimulate the development of new financing instruments.
Participants also discussed the main trends and market prospects and developed practical recommendations on how to use available financial opportunities and products effectively to grow a business.
“The market for tokens and bonds is among the most dynamic. The panellists demonstrated how quickly new solutions are emerging: the Belarusian Currency and Stock Exchange is preparing to launch a financial marketplace, Aigenis has issued bonds linked to the value of silver and platinum, WhiteBird is developing its own debt token (ICO) platform, and FinTech Invest is launching the TRUSTO platform for bonds and tokens. At the same time, legislative — primarily tax — constraints remain, and their removal could further stimulate the development of this area,” noted Alexander Antonov, Associate Partner and Head of the Infrastructure Projects Practice at REVERA.
This quotation underscores the conference’s focus on the practical aspects and real prospects for the development of new financial instruments.
