More quotes by Christine Lagarde
When women do better, economies do better.
Christine Lagarde
People can buy the kind of things they consider as normal and take for granted because of globalization and trade and use of supply chains and the reduction of the cost base of the manufacturing of some products.
Christine Lagarde
Women, as the minority, have to prove their worth all the time. That's the reason we tend to over-prepare, over-study, over-anticipate. I think it's the case with many women leaders. We tend to over do it.
Christine Lagarde
Our fortunes rise together, and they fall together. 'All men are brothers,' said the Analects. We have a collective responsibility-to bring about a more stable and more prosperous world, a world in which every person in every country can reach their full potential.
Christine Lagarde
Unless we take action on climate change, future generations will be roasted, toasted, fried and grilled.
Christine Lagarde
In the area of trading, it is now an academically demonstrated fact that women tend to be a little bit more risk-adverse. They don't move positions as quickly and as erratically as men. Maybe it is a bit less profitably, but I think it would have been less risky.
Christine Lagarde
It's a question of not so much pushing the boys out of the picture, but making the whole frame bigger so that both men and women access the labor market, contribute to the economy, generate growth, have jobs, and so on.
Christine Lagarde
The Egyptian society needs to include its women if it wants to have economic prosperity.
Christine Lagarde
Consumption has massively benefited from globalization.
Christine Lagarde
I'm not in the business of reading tea leaves. I don't have a crystal ball.
Christine Lagarde
I guess economists, it's a bit like scientists, you have definitely fewer women in that field.
Christine Lagarde
Those negatively affected by globalization, those who are losing their jobs, and losing their skills, people out of training, must be looked after. Governments must establish policies, and governments and companies must actually address that issue, so that those who lose out from globalization can be retrained, recycled, re-established, cared for.
Christine Lagarde
Improved productivity is another direct benefit of globalization.
Christine Lagarde
Countries like Canada, Korea, China, Germany can and should use fiscal space. Some of them are doing it, not all.
Christine Lagarde
It so happens that because all the economies are strongly inter-connected and aggregated, there is trade that is happening not just from China to the rest of the world, but from the rest of the world to China as well, and that is going to continue.
Christine Lagarde
We need to put our good research, our good work, our principles into actionable items whenever we can.
Christine Lagarde
We Need a RESET IN THE WAY THE ECONOMY GROWS Around the World
Christine Lagarde
When you think of a safe and solid arbitration place, you think of Switzerland, Sweden, Canada. Those attributes may be associated with clichés, but I think they resonate with a lot of people and they are a solid base for Canada to co-operate and help others.
Christine Lagarde
I think I have a male side about me and you have a female side about you. It's a question of repressing or not.
Christine Lagarde
I look under the skin of countries' economies, and I help them make better decisions and be stronger, to prosper and create employment.
