  • 2018 Annual Report

    2018 Annual Report

    Committee for Economic Development Reasoned Solutions from Business in the Nation’s Interest 2018 Year-in-Review MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT, COMMITTEE FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (CED) In 1942, President Roosevelt asked American business leaders to help transition America from a wartime to a peacetime economy. In response to that request, the Committee for Economic Development (CED) was founded by a small group of leading business leaders who were concerned with the global economy and its impact on American society. Early efforts by CED resulted in major policy accomplishments including the Marshall Plan and the Bretton Woods Agreement which established both the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF). By rebuilding Europe, these programs had a profound impact on the global economy which led to the greatest period of economic expansion across the globe. Over the past seventy-six years, CED has continued to bring together leading business leaders, policy-makers and academics to shape the intersection of business, government and society. More recently, our programs have had a significant impact in identifying the importance of strengthening our educational systems, particularly pre-kindergarten and secondary education. We have also been advocates for campaign finance reform, greater government fiscal responsibility, healthcare transformation, women-in-leadership and a sustainable system of free enterprise. Over this period, what has remained constant is CED’s commitment to business-led, nonpartisan solutions that put the interests of the nation above any corporate or self- interests. CED’s role in providing reasoned solutions in our nation’s interest has never been more urgent. The polarization of our political system, coupled with dangerous attacks on our systems of free enterprise and democratic institutions call for open and civil debate, not a retrenchment from well thought out policy positions.
