About the Guest:
In 2000, Alain was appointed Director General of the Ministry of Finance, the youngest person to be appointed a director general in Lebanon. He is notable for successfully implementing change in a complex multicultural environment, where it is said obedience to clans supersedes allegiance to institutions. 

Throughout his career, Bifani was able to implement major reforms despite strong resistance from the establishment. He has proven successful in managing national finances during major crises and the absence of a government budget for more than 12 years!
Transparency was at the heart of Bifani’s work. He introduced electronic taxation, taxpayers’ services, and a code of ethics. He was known for having reconstructed 27 years of financial accounts for the government, thus leading the way towards accountability.

He holds a B.Eng in Optics and Telecommunications from the Institut d’Optique Graduate School (France) and a higher degree in Management and Finance from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes Commerciales (HEC), France.
