BIBF, EDB to host economist

Manama : Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF), in cooperation with Economic Development Board (EDB), will host economist and author Dr. Dambisa Moyo on Wednesday in BIBF headquarters in Juffair.

The talk will address the current macroeconomic environment given the ongoing economic malaise and impact of geopolitical risks and trends on global markets and growth, besides the market shifts and investment opportunities across asset classes and industries.

The free-of-charge session will be moderated by Chief Economist in EDB Dr. Jarmo Kotilaine.

Dr. Moyo completed a PhD in economics at Oxford University and worked previously as an economist at the World Bank in Washington DC.

She is author of the New York Times bestsellers in economics and finance related books. In addition, she regularly appears in economic and finance-related publications as her work examines, in particular, the interplay of international business and the global economy, while emphasizing the key opportunities for investment.

She capitalies on her rare ability to translate trends in markets, technology, politics, regulatory matters and economics into their expected impact on global business.
