Premier-designate Binyamin Netanyahu on Sunday is meeting with 40 leading members of Israel’s business community in the hope of working towards formulating his policies to address the increasing fiscal crisis in Israel.

The meeting is set to begin at 6:00pm, including members of the banking community, industrialists, high-tech entrepreneurs and others. Every participant is allocated 12 minutes to speak, to present his/her view regarding today’s economic realities. 

In another business matter, Netanyahu met with Histadrut national labor federation leader Ofir Eini last week to discuss the bleak economic forecast for 2009 with the nation’s union leader, seeking to hear his position on numerous pertinent economic matters.
