Join us for two days of an interactive conference to navigate the neglected yet critical terrain of household savings and personal finance in MENA region.

The conference sessions will address the following:

  • What’s the socio-economic imperative for household savings? What’s its economic power?
  • To turn MENA into savings economies:  what culture and which products do we need to build?
