Trade Bank of Iraq Sponsors Economist/EIU ‘Iraq Business Investment Summit’, 29 September 2010

We at TBI were proud to be the Founding Sponsors of the Economist/EIU Iraq Business Investment Summit, which took place on 29th September at the Ritz Carlton Hotel, Bahrain.
 
Delegates agreed that the variety of expert opinions at the conference provided a realistic context for the opportunities as well as the issues involved in investment and trading in Iraq.
 
It was thanks to the distinct backgrounds of people who attended, debated, asked questions and networked that the forum displayed such intellectual capital and stimulating discussion. Notwithstanding our delegates' varying inputs; we were unified in our interest in Iraq and in seeing the country develop and prosper.
 
We are grateful to the experts from The Economist Group who moderated the event, and to the top-level speakers from the Iraqi government and international business who generously gave their time to share their views with us. The conference allowed senior executives to take part in a critical discussion with their peers on Iraq's investment future, in which we at TBI believe so profoundly
