Annual General Meeting 2025
A fantastic evening at our Annual General Meeting!
We were privileged to follow the formalities with a thought-provoking discussion led by Charles Funnell, CEO and Founder of CF Commodities and one of AusCham’s long-standing members.
With a career spanning global giants like Unilever and Cargill, Charles shared invaluable insights into commodities risk and market strategy. Joined by Australian Swiss Chamber of Commerce President Vicki Tanner, the conversation explored:
🔹 The impact of Trump-era trade policies
🔹 The evolving role of safe havens in volatile times
🔹 Shifting correlations between Forex and commodities
🔹 And importantly — where the smart money is heading
The evening continued with a guided wine tasting led by Paul Liversedge of Real Wines, who shared his expertise as a Master of Wine. Guests enjoyed a curated selection of Australian, Italian, and New Zealand whites and rosés — the perfect lead-up to the European summer.
Huge thanks to venue sponsor Atlantic Partners Asia and Arv Sreedhar; and to Jane Ingold for the delicious Aussie themed culinary delights!
A big thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to such a dynamic discussion!
