Adb Annual Meeting: Focus on Asian, European linkages

ISLAMABAD: The 49th annual meeting of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) board of governors, scheduled from May 2 to 5, will focus on closer Asian and European linkages to support sustainable development. The theme of the meeting, which will be held in Frankfurt, Germany, is ‘Cooperating for Sustainability’. The flagship governors’ seminar will examine the factors causing the current global growth slowdown and the structural reforms needed to address constraints and put the world back on a path towards sustained growth. A joint seminar with the IMF will look at growing financial links between Asia and Europe and how the current benefits can be expanded and risks mitigated.
