Paris, 8 January 2020
This year, the Forum will welcome 270 listed companies of all sizes (small, mid and large caps) at the Lyon Convention Center. The companies present will have the possibility of meeting 600 investors. The Forum is becoming an increasingly international event, hosting 116 non-French companies from 14 different countries, including 69 groups from Germany.
Over the course of the two days, more than 6,400 meetings will be organised in the form of one-to-one, group or plenary sessions at which CEOs and CFOs will address an audience of investors. These meetings will provide the companies attending with an opportunity to convince investors of their potential.
In parallel, three themed workshops will be organised.
At the opening dinner organised in conjunction with the councils for the city of Lyon and the Greater Lyon area, Gérard Collomb, the Mayor of Lyon, and Philippe Oddo will address an audience of French and German companies and international investors.
The ODDO BHF Forum is one of the largest events of its kind held in Europe for mid and large cap companies. It is organised by the ODDO BHF midcap equity research, sales and corporate access teams which are based in Lyon. In 2019, Extel ranked ODDO BHF the number one broker with the leading equity research department on French stocks for the fourth consecutive year.
ODDO BHF would like to thank its partners for their support: AU Group, Bpifrance, Euronext, Euronext Corporate Services, LYON PÔLE BOURSE and Mazars.

Three British economists—Paul Marsh and Mike Staunton of the London Business School, and Elroy Dimson from Cambridge University—have embarked on a meticulous endeavour: they have traced 35 stock markets around the world as far back as possible to test a core theoretical question of investment. Are equities truly superior to all other asset classes over the long term?
Economic crises leave a legacy of high public debt. Expansion phases should be used as an opportunity by governments to reduce their debt and rebuild some headroom in their public finances. This is easier said than done. Let’s look at what happened after the last two major crises.
We must confess that we have a strategic "bias" in favor of the US market. The past 15 years proves us quite right. Since the end of the 2007-2008 Financial Crisis, Europe has outperformed for only 27 months, or just over 2 years. This structural outperformance of the US vs. Europe is mainly explained by a more robust EPS dynamic in the US.
