Ralf Schuster

I am Helaba's geopolitical expert. Thanks to my nearly 40 years of involvement in German foreign trade, I have first-hand knowledge of the economic and political issues affecting over 100 countries.

As someone who straddles the worlds of finance and the real economy, I worked in the German medical technology export industry for almost 20 years, most recently as head of the Office for Government Relations in Berlin. I am also a long-standing member of the executive committee of GHORFA – Arab-German Chamber of Commerce and Industry – and a member of the International Club at the German Foreign Office. International Club at the German Foreign Office.

My audience at financial institutions, companies, associations, and in politics extends far beyond Germany.
