Joseph Stiglitz, Former World Bank Economist and Nobel Laureate


The Global Poverty Summit is taking place in Johannesburg until Wednesday and it comes at a time when emerging markets, including many in Africa, are showing a much faster recovery from the global financial crisis than their developed market peers.

Professor Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Laureate and former World Bank economist, is in South Africa for the Summit and he joins us now in studio. Joining ABN also is this evening's guest host, Gina Schoeman, who's Absa Capital's Lead Economist on South Africa.
