Dambisa Moyo is one of our most eloquent and informed thinkers about the geopolitics of emerging markets. Born and raised in Zambia, Southern Africa, she was a global economist at Goldman Sachs, focusing on the debt capital markets and global macroeconomics. Previously she worked at the World Bank in Washington D.C.
A member of Cambridge University's Centre for International Business and Management and the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Ms. Moyo was recently nominated to the World Economic Forum's Young Global Leaders Forum.
Ms. Moyo's first book, Dead Aid, argues for more innovative ways for Africa to finance development including trade with China, accessing the capital markets, and microfinance. Her new book, How the West Was Lost: Fifty Years of Economic Folly and the Stark Choices that Lie Ahead, explores the failure of policy-making in the world's leading industrialized economies. She examines how politically-motivated policy decisions around Capital, Labor and Technology - key ingredients for growth - have placed economies on a precarious path of economic decline.
She appears frequently as a commentator and quoted expert in US and international media, including the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, NPR, Time, the Charlie Rose Show, Newsweek, and Bloomburg.
