“I am eager to engage with fellow leaders in this crucial dialogue, as we work together to ensure that the Bretton Woods Institutions are equipped to lead the global economy into the next era of development and prosperity,” said HRH Ambassador Ossai. “Reconnecting with key figures from our institutions is always an invaluable opportunity to collaborate on strategies that will benefit the world’s economies and promote a better future for all.”

Chaired by BWC’s Executive Committee members William C. Dudley, John Lipsky, and William R. Rhodes, the Annual Meeting is expected to provide a robust platform for influential discussions. The event will focus on ensuring that the Bretton Woods Institutions remain at the forefront of guiding the global economy through the next 80 years, fostering growth, stability, and sustainable development.
