Arab ministers of finance and central bank governors will gather in Dubai in September to debate and discuss 'Economic Policy, Investment Opportunities and Regulations in the Arab Region'. 

 

The panel discussion will be held at the Dubai International Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI) and will signal the start of a series of seminars and workshops, topped by cultural evenings, arranged by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Central Bank.  

 

"These events are being organized by us alongside the Annual Meetings of the Boards of Governors of the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund (IMF)," said Sultan Bin Nasser Al-Suwaidi,” Governor of the UAE Central Bank.  

 

The Annual Meetings of the Boards of Governors of the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund were first held in Washington in 1946. They are hosted by an international city one year in three. The UAE and Dubai were selected because of their highly developed transportation and logistics infrastructure and growing importance as a financial hub. — (menareport.com)
