Businessmen usually being under pressure, relax and are ready for new beginnings in the fresh air and a friendly environment. Golf is said to be the favorite game of businessmen, CEOs and executives, as they are always at meetings, in the offices, or on business trips spending most of their time. The second reason for such people’s choosing golf is that they take into account each millimeter of the angle and think too much before making a decision while hitting a ball, as well as targeting at long distance, like in their daily jobs.
Financial Chain Corporation was represented at the Golf Fest by Ann Raginskaya, Country Manager of the company in Kyrgyzstan.
