One of the external assessors, having reviewed his work noted <\/span>\u201cDr. Hosein is a scholar in international trade, international economics and economic integration with a particular focus on the Caribbean region.<\/span><\/p>\n

He can be described as one of the key economic scholars in this field\u2026Overall, I highly commend Dr. <\/span>Hosein\u2019s<\/span> research activity.<\/span><\/p>\n
