Please join us for a Reuters NEXT Newsmaker featuring U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen
Thursday, 25th April 2024 | 10.00am EST / 3.00pm BST
U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is steering the U.S. economy through a period of significant post-pandemic recovery and transformation aimed at reviving U.S. manufacturing, while transitioning to a green economy and addressing years of neglect of disadvantaged communities. Yellen, a trailblazer in the field of economics and the first woman to head the U.S. Treasury, sits down for an interview with Reuters days after the spring meetings of the IMF and World Bank, and her second trip to China.
Reuters Editor-in-Chief, Alessandra Galloni will speak to Yellen about the crisis in the Middle East, lingering inflation pressures, reforms she is championing at the World Bank and other multilateral banks, and the state of U.S.-China relations after President Joe Biden’s surprise announcement about raising tariffs on Chinese metal products.
