Grim but not too grim. Small, but not out.  If you have any vested interest in Jordan you'll want to hear this casual &amp; candid discussion about the economic landscape in Jordan, between host Imad Shawa &amp; guest Fawaz Ghanem. Jordan is a poor post colonial nation with little natural resources to speak of, and a workforce by-in-large either in the informal economy or the public sector.  Despite its public health and education sectors in long-term decline, the country remains stable politically, in contrast to most of its Arab peers.  Thanks to the stabilizing efforts of both the internal affairs apparatus, and robust foreign relations. Ad hoc successes of entrepreneurial ventures and startups have placed Jordan on the business map in the region. However most real value has been leveraged through accessing foreign markets. Fawaz Ghanem walks us through the reasons behind Jordan's current economic situation, which is not all doom &amp; gloom. Fawaz has over 20 years of investment banking experience between the US and the Middle East, including IPO’s, Bond Issuances, M&amp;A transactions, Privatizations, Restructurings and Private Placements.  His investment banking career started at UBS in New York, and and in 2007 Mr. Ghanem founded Ithmar Invest which became a leading regional private investment banking firm. Imad and Fawaz both earned degrees from NYU's Stern School of Business.  And they both happen to have attended one of Tony Robbins Unleash the Power Within events.
