7The Sri Lanka Economic Summit 2022 organised by the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce will explore several areas of economic reform as Sri Lanka seeks to embark on a path of economic revival, with Session 2 of the Summit dedicated to ‘Implementing the Roadmap to SOE Reform – Opportunities for the Private Sector’, on 6 December.

The session will focus on the ideal overall framework for SOE reform, which models can be explored for deregulation and divestment and the reform outlook for key State institutions, as well as addressing the pertinent questions of how to better communicate the urgent need for reforms in order to ensure public, trade union and other stakeholder buy-in.

The plenary will include a presentation by SOE Restructuring Agency Chairman Suresh Shah, who will be joined by an eminent international speaker, who will speak about the landscape, opportunities and way forward for SOE reforms. Session panellists will include Asia Securities Chairman Dumith Fernando, JB Securities Ltd. CEO Murtaza Jafferjee, Verité Research Ltd.
