Leading expert on US economy at UNC-Greensboro

GREENSBORO — A widely quoted economic forecaster reviews the country’s economic crisis in a talk at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Former Federal Reserve board member Lyle Gramley will discuss how Americans can confront the long list of financial and economic problems and how to fix them on Thursday at the university.

The event is sponsored by UNC-Greensboro’s Bryan School of Business & Economics and the Stanford Group, a global network of financial services companies.

Gramley is a senior economic adviser with a Stanford Group unit that provides political, economic and industry research for institutional and corporate investors. He is frequently sought out and interviewed by journalists as an authority on the U.S. economy.
