Aaron Institute Annual Conference 2017

The Aaron Institute annual conference hosts Israeli business leaders and senior policy makers, as well as world economists and top Israeli economic analysts, for an open and professional discussion of economic policy in Israel. We discuss key issues of the Israeli economy at the current global markets and recommend strategic reforms to enhance Israel’s growth.

DOES THE GOVERNMENT HAVE AN ECONOMIC STRATEGY?


  • Does government efforts to encourage exports hurt the Israeli labor productivity?
  • Can the government increase growth and labor productivity by eliminating trade barriers?
  • Should the government increase investments and financing them by increasing the deficit?
  • Can increasing taxes and government expenditure support growth?

  • Are investors deterred by the burden of bureaucracy and regulation in Israel?
  • How should the government address the high poverty rates?
  • Can we enhance the skills of the Israeli worker?
  • Is the Israeli economy ready to face the uncertainty of global markets?
