Old Mutual Malawi has pledged K12.2 million, denominated in Malawian kwacha, to the Economics Association of Malawi's annual conference. The donation will support ECAMA's gathering, scheduled for October 29 and 30 in Mangochi. Economists and policymakers are expected to attend, along with business leaders and other stakeholders. Their discussions are focused on reforms intended to improve the country's economic performance. The announcement presents the contribution as private-sector backing for policy dialogue during continued economic challenges. It does not break down how the funds will be used across the conference program. The excerpt also does not identify the specific reforms under discussion.
