I have no doubt that our meeting will be very stimulating and generate lots of ideas on how finance could promote inclusive growth. Organising this meeting in this small island-state has been quite a challenge for us.
I must therefore express my personal thanks to the AACB, the organising team at the Bank, the Office of the PM and the various agencies involved in the logistic arrangements for your reception. And I must add my personal thanks to the head of my office at the Bank for coordinating the whole thing. I wish you a pleasant stay in Mauritius.
