AlUla, Saudi Arabia, February 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The second edition of the AlUla Conference for Emerging Market Economies 2026 will begin tomorrow, organized in AlUla Governorate through a partnership between the Ministry of Finance and the International Monetary Fund, with high-level participation of economic policymakers, finance ministers, central bank governors, heads of international financial institutions and a distinguished group of experts and specialists from around the world.
The launch of the Conference comes at a time when the global economy is experiencing profound transformations in international trade and financial systems, accompanied by growing challenges from slowing growth, growing uncertainty and increasing pressures on emerging market economies. This highlights the importance of strengthening international dialogue, coordinating economic policies and strengthening the resilience of these economies to support global economic stability.
The conference aims to help shape the economic policy agenda of emerging market economies in ways that support growth and prosperity, while simultaneously strengthening global economic stability. This will be achieved by providing a high-level international platform for the exchange of views, policy discussions and the sharing of relevant experiences and expertise.
This year’s conference is held under the theme “Policy in a Reset of International Trade and Financial Systems”, highlighting the rapid transformations taking place in the global economy and the challenges and opportunities they present for emerging market economies, particularly in the areas of international trade, monetary and financial systems and macroeconomic policies.
The conference program focuses on a number of priority issues and policy areas, including the reshaping of global trade amid geopolitical and economic changes, the dynamics of the international monetary and financial system, and the challenges facing monetary policy in an environment characterized by uncertainty and structural transformations.
Additionally, the conference will address resilience and fiscal policy frameworks in a shock-prone world, the role of public policies in building economic resilience, and ways to drive private sector-led growth, increase productivity, and achieve an appropriate balance between the role of the state and private sector empowerment in emerging market economies.
The conference will conclude with discussions focused on strengthening the resilience of emerging market economies and economic transformation, reviewing key lessons learned and defining future steps to support international cooperation, policy coordination and the development of practical solutions to address global economic challenges.
The AlUla conference is expected to raise global awareness of the issues of emerging market economies, highlight their central role in the global economy and strengthen the presence of these issues on the international economic and media agenda, thereby supporting the achievement of more inclusive and sustainable economic growth in the long term.
