About The Emerging Markets Forum

Participants

The Participants of the Emerging Markets Forum:

• Are drawn from the highest strata of the private and public sectors.
• Enjoy comparable international stature and thus constitute a peer group.
• Bring extraordinary experience and expertise to the issues being considered.
• Are invited by name as individuals.
• Are willing and able to use their influence to implement conclusions.
• Are a mix of permanent participants (who ensure continuity) and participants invited to specific meetings (who bring exceptional knowledge of specific issues.)
• Are present at all meetings during a Forum, and attend without staff.
• Represent their personal views rather than official positions.

The inaugural Forum in December 2005 was attended by some 60 private and public sector leaders from emerging market and OECD countries who were invited to attend in light of their interest in and expertise in its subject matter. Although they approached the Forum with contrasting views about building capital market institutions and managing foreign capital inflows, all participants agreed to use the Forum's conclusions as a basis for action in their respective spheres of influence.

Management

The Chief Executive of the Emerging Markets Forum is Harinder Kohli, the Forum Manager is Sylvie Naville, and the Deputy Forum Manager is Sumithra Rajendra.
