The International Center for Economic Growth [ICEG] is a California 501-c-3 non-profit established in 1985 by the U.S. Agency for International Development to promote free-market economics in developing countries. The approach taken to meet that goal was to create indigenous economic policy institutes and build their macroeconomic technical capacity. Today the ICEG has helped create and develop more than 300 "Member Institutes" in 104 countries.
The ICEG Overseers include among others, former Federal Reserve Chariman Paul Volker; former World Bank President and Chair/CEO of Bank of America, Tom Clausen; former Director of the Office of Management and Budget, Roy Ash; Peter Mc Pherson, former Administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, and the former President of Panama, Nicolas Arditto-Barletta.
