MEI-Emirates NBD Business Lecture Series
featuring Mr Tim Fox, Head of Research & Chief Economist, Emirates NBD
The NUS Middle East Institute (MEI) is pleased to partner again with the Emirates-NBD in organising the Middle East Business Lecture Series (MEBLS). The series aims to generate awareness and promote greater understanding of the economic and financial aspects of the modern Middle East by providing a forum for prominent and accomplished intellectuals in the business/finance sector to share their views and experiences on key issues. It is hoped that practitioners and industry experts in Singapore and the region can benefit positively from the information and knowledge discussed in the series and pave the way for healthy working ventures and relationships between Southeast Asia and the Middle East.
For the second lecture of the series, Emirate NBD’s Head of Research & Chief Economist, Mr Tim Fox, will share findings and perspectives in a talk entitled “Middle East Outlook – Crude Realities” on Thursday, 7th April at 10am. Attendance is free via compulsory registration but places are limited so please register as soon as possible.
