The 2011 IIF Annual Membership Meeting will be held from Friday, September 23 through Sunday, September 25 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Washington, DC.

The meeting will hear perspectives and opinions from leaders in the worlds of banking, finance and politics. The program will have a strong appeal to our international constituency, featuring discussions on the global energy markets in light of the still-shifting geo-political landscape in the Middle East, fiscal management in mature markets, and the policy challenges facing emerging markets.
