Though the 2014 Road Map was the eighth annual policy statement, this is the first time the important document comes under a public discussion. The discussion will be moderated by the Daily FT Editor Nisthar Cassim. Via the Road Map, the Central Bank last week announced monetary and financial sector polices for 2014 and beyond. It also reviews salient achievements in the previous year and explained the Central Bank’s policy direction and work plan for the New Year.
