Prošlo je gotovo točno osam godina od Daytonskog sporazuma koji je okončao rat u Bosni i Hercegovini. U tom periodu zemlja je napredovala od intezivne provedbe mira u prvoj godini (iza koje je stajalo 60,000 vojnika koje je predvodio NATO), do duže faze političke i ekonomske obnove koju su označili opći izbori u 1996., 1998., i 2000. godini, i oko [...]

Kao što vam je poznato ovdje sam danas došao zajedno sa sudcem Theodorom Meronom, predsjednikom Međunarodnog tribunala za ratne zločine počinjene na teritoriju bivše Jugoslavije, kako bih vam izložio naše zajedničke planove za izgradnju domaćih potencijala za krivično gonjenje ratnih zločina u Bosni i Hercegovini.

I am here today to talk about how you can make this country work. I am addressing you because I believe you are the ones who can begin to make it work. You have it within your power to bring about a fundamental change in the fortunes of your fellow citizens -- and from the conversations I have had with many of you I believe that you want to and ar [...]

I know that, because I serve on the board of one of the UK’s finest, and – I am proud to say – most consistently awkward newspapers.

It is a great pleasure to be here today. This centre will provide a crucial service, particularly to small- and medium-sized enterprises, because it will provide the kind of infrastructure that businesses often require from time to time but cannot afford to establish on a permanent basis.

Okrugli stol o gospodarstvu bavi se pitanjima kao što su prakse i metode upravljanja, uvjeti za investiranje, te utjecaj i intervencije vlada. Upravo je ova veoma usmjerena i fokusirana poslovna perspektiva ono što ovaj razgovor čini tako inovativnim - jer, ključno pitanje koje vi trebate razmotriti je da li poduzeća mogu uspješno poslovati u Bosni [...]

Thank you. When I was reviewing the program for this Symposium I was struck by the urgency of the theme – “Accounting and Auditing in a Crisis Environment”. But I was also encouraged by the recognition that this is an environment that requires serious and vigorous change. Your organization is only one among many that have in recent months underta [...]

We are here to pay tribute to twelve men and women – five of them from the Office which I am now privileged to lead - who gave their lives in the service of peace in this country. This ceremony has become – rightly – an annual occasion. Each year, we journey to this remote and timeless spot to remember our colleagues.

Zahvaljujem vam što ste me ponovno pozvali, uoči jednog od vjerojatno najvažnijih trenutaka u napretku Bosne i Hercegovine ka stabilizaciji i punoj državnosti. Sada se morate suočiti s istinski ključnim odlukama koje se tiču budućnosti Bosne i Hercegovine. To će biti tema mog današnjeg obraćanja.

I am delighted to have been asked to participate at this conference. I am an economist; the focus of the conference is security – and the point that I wish to make this morning is that you can’t have security if you don’t have economic stability. Economics and security are inextricably bound up.
