New York, NY - The New York Armenian Students' Association in
cooperation with the Columbia University Armenian Club, the Armenian
Network of New York / New Jersey Metro Area and Armenian National
Committee of New York is pleased to present Dr. David Grigorian,
who will discuss the current economic environment in Armenia.
The presentation will take place on Wednesday, May 4 at 6:30 PM at
the Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs,
Room 1219.
David Grigorian is an Economist at the International Monetary Fund
(IMF) and a founding co-chair of the Armenian International Policy
Research Group (AIPRG), a Washington-based network specializing in
Armenia-related public policy issues. He holds a Ph.D. in Economics
from the University of Maryland and an MA in Economics from the
Central European University. His research and operational work at
the IMF focus on open economy macroeconomics, banking and capital
markets development, and economic development. Prior to joining the
IMF, Dr. Grigorian worked at the World Bank's Europe and Central Asia
Region, where he led banking and private sector development projects
in Central Asia.
In addition to providing a general overview of Armenia's macroeconomic
performance in recent years and factors behind it, Dr. Grigorian
will focus on three key aspects of Armenia's growth performance -
past and future - that have received little attention from the
policymakers in Armenia and the Diaspora: (1) sources of growth,
(2) sustainability of growth, and (3) income distribution. He will
provide an in-depth review of these aspects and offer recommendations
to mitigate any risks associated with them. A question and answer
session will follow the presentation.
The Armenian Students' Association would like to thank St. Vartan
Armenian Cathedral of New York,the Armenian General Benevolent Union,
the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Armen Garo Gomideh, and the
New York University Armenian Hokee Club for their unconditional
support in planning this event. For more information about
