16 March 2015: A panel of experts discussed the role the shadow economy can play in a country’s prosperity, and the best policies to promote the ‘right kind’ of shadow economic activity. Hosted in partnership with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education—Economics Institute (CERGE-EI), the Legatum Institute also discussed how informal and sometimes illegal economic activity can pose problems but also offer innovative solutions. Moderated by Edward Lucas of The Economist, the panel included: Giles Andrews, Zopa; Tina Fordham, Citi Research; Peter Sanfey, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development; Jan Svejnar, CERGE-EI; and
Andrei Kirilenko, MIT Sloan School of Management. More information: [ Ссылка ] #shadoweconomy
