TUNISIA - Mohamed Ghannouchi.

The Prime Minister since Nov. 17, 1999, Ghannouchi is a prominent economist. Until then, he was minister for international co-operation and foreign investment, a powerful portfolio which oversees Tunisia's relations with the European Union, the IMF and World Bank and the other multilateral

agencies, as well as the management of Tunis' foreign borrowings and the flow of foreign investments into the country.

While Ghannouchi has oversight and guiding responsibilities over the cabinet ministers, he does not interfere in their day-to-day decision-making. Aged 58, Ghannouchi's appointment to the premiership was welcomed by the business community and foreign bankers as he was a committed advocate of economic reforms (see his detailed profile in APS Review's Downstream Trends, Vol. 54, No. 15).
