President's Forum featuring Maurice R. 'Hank' Greenberg
NEW YORK, September 17, 2015 — For the fall 2015 edition of our signature series “President’s Forum,” Asia Society President Josette Sheeran is joined by Maurice R. “Hank” Greenberg about his groundbreaking career spent doing business in Asia. Former Chairman of the Asia Society Board of Trustees, former Chairman of AIG, current Chairman and CEO of C.V. Starr Companies, Greenberg opened businesses and markets in many Asian nations long before the economies of those countries had achieved their great success. Greenberg’s work involved the expansion of markets across the Asia-Pacific, including China, Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines. He was particularly instrumental in the landmark economic opening of China, including its entry to the World Trade Organization (WTO), for which he received the Marco Polo Award for his contributions to U.S.-China business relations. The video includes introductory remarks by Asia Society co-chair Henrietta Fore and Asia Society Policy Institute President Kevin Rudd. (1 hr., 19 min.)
