In a key initiative, the country’s premier private sector lobby the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce and the Daily FT are coming together to host a crucial discussion on the Central Bank’s Road Map for 2014, an important policy document. The popular Road Map, which is an annual feature, will be unveiled on 2 January by Central Bank Governor Nivard Cabraal. The discussion jointly organised by the Ceylon Chamber and Daily FT is the first-of-its-kind on the Road Map. The panel discussion which also includes the Central Bank Governor and key private sector experts will be held on 6 January from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Ground Floor Auditorium of the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce, Navam Mawatha, Colombo 2. Aitken Spence Deputy Chairman and Managing Director Rajan Brito, NDB Chief Executive Officer Rajendra Theagarajah, former Central Bank Assistant Governor Dr. Anila Dias Bandaranaike and Insurance Association of Sri Lanka President Prakash Schaffter will join Central Bank Governor Cabraal in the panel. The discussion will be moderated by the Daily FT Editor Nisthar Cassim. Via the Road Map, the Central Bank announces monetary and financial sector polices for 2014 and beyond. It is a widely-anticipated policy statement which also reviews salient achievements in the previous year and explains the Central Bank’s policy direction and work plan for the New Year. The 2014 Road Map, which is a brainchild of Governor Cabraal, will be the seventh in the series. Participation at this useful forum is by prior registration with the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce on or before Friday. Registration will be on a first come, first served basis and confirmed only upon payment.
