Organized by Center for Asian Law

When the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) was launched in 2016, many wondered how this new multilateral development bank (MDB) would be different.

RSVP for this book talk with AIIB’s founding lawyer, Natalie Lichtenstein, to discuss the AIIB in the context of MDB genealogy, how the AIIB’s 21st century charter reflects its heritage, and what new features were added.

This event is sponsored by the Georgetown Center for Asian Law.
