This year’s Annual Meeting will be presented in a new format with discussion panels reflecting on the six re-defined EBRD’s qualities of transition.
The six qualities of Transition according to the EBRD are the following:
Towards a market structure that ensures competition, with productive firms generating value, and the incentive for firms to compete and advance.
Discussion Panel: Competitiveness in the 21st Century
Towards authority, decision-making and accountability with quality and appropriate processes.
Discussion Panel: How important is Trust for the Functioning of Institutions?
Towards a “green”, environmentally sustainable market economy where economic decisions reflect the true, full value of resources.
Discussion Panel: The Journey to Green Growth… Seeking Solutions to the Challenges
