Mohamed El-Erian interviewed by Michelle Caruso-Cabrera - well received by the FWA and several media outlets- a member only and sold-out event!
The Financial Women’s Association is proud to have held an exclusive members-only event featuring PIMCO CEO Mohamed El-Erian on the evening of October 25th, 2010. The event was elegantly hosted by FWA President Circle firm, The McGraw-Hill Companies, in their 50th floor space Midtown Manhattan. The sold out event with over 160 attendees included FWA Members, PIMCO employees and McGraw-Hill employees for both the cocktail reception as well as the formal part of the program. CNBC’s Michelle Caruso-Cabrera interviewed Dr. El-Erian in a lively and engaging discussion that included his views on U.S. Treasuries, Greece’s economic future, and gold, amongst other topics (see links to media coverage). The audience also had the opportunity to participate in a live Q&A. Attendees received a copy of Dr. El-Erian’s book “When Markets Collide”, courtesy of The McGraw-Hill companies, and had the opportunity to purchase Ms. Caruso-Cabrera’s new book “You Know I’m Right”. This marquis event is the first of its kind and was organized by the FWA’s Special Events Taskforce with the goal of adding exclusive value and access to FWA members and its supporters. Attendees have responded with extremely positive feedback and many have asked when the next event of this nature will be. Stay tuned!
The FWA is grateful to both Mohamed El-Erian and Michelle Caruso-Cabrera for graciously participating in the event. Additionally, the FWA is appreciative of The McGraw-Hill Companies for its generosity in hosting and underwriting this event.
