On the 1st of February, 2018, the AEB North-Western Regional Committee held a briefing with Gabriel Di Bella, Resident Representative of the International Monetary Fund in the Russian Federation, titled “Russia: In Search of a New Growth Model”. The event was traditionally kindly hosted by the Consulate General of Lithuania in St. Petersburg.

Meetings with high ranking experts from international financial organizations are a long and well established AEB tradition. 

The event was opened by Dainius Numgaudis, Consul General of the Republic of Lithuania and was moderated by Andreas Bitzi, Chairman of the AEB North-Western Regional Committee.

The briefing was followed by a questions-and-answers session.
