One of Nation's Leading Economists to Headline September 18 Event

Online, August 9, 2013 (Newswire.com) - The past several years have been a virtual rollercoaster when it comes to the economy and how it has affected our lives. If, as they say, "knowledge is power," then Trilogy Financial Services' 6th Annual Economic Update may prove the perfect antidote to the confusion and disillusionment felt by many Americans. Taking center stage at this event is one of the nation's leading economists Esmael Adibi, Ph.D., of Chapman University's Anderson Center for Economic Research, who is considered the "go-to" expert when it comes to gauging current economic conditions and forecasting trends.

The event will be held on Wednesday, September 18 at 5:30 p.m. at the History Colorado Center (1200 Broadway) in Denver. Cocktails and heavy hors d'oeuvres will be served before the presentation. Cost is $150 and seating is limited. Registration is open from August 16 - September 12. Visit www.TrilogyEconomicUpdate.com for information on how to attend and to register.

"This event was designed to help our guests sort through the noise that is so prevalent in the financial media today," said Nick Richtsmeier, regional vice president of Trilogy Financial Services and producer of the event. "We know that financially conscious Coloradans demand more than just cursory information, they want to delve deeper and understand how world events can actually affect their pocketbooks. We are delighted that Dr. Adibi has agreed to lead the discussion as this nationally-renowned economist is known for his humor and ability to relate complicated topics to a broad audience."

Over the past decade, Adibi's team at Chapman University has built a reputation for the accuracy of its annual economic forecast. The findings are based on a comprehensive database and econometric model developed by Chapman faculty including Adibi as well as students. Adibi received his doctorate degree in economics from Claremont Graduate University. He has been published many times both in mainstream media like the Los Angeles Times and in professional journals including International Advances in Economic Research. He is past president of the Association for University Business and Economic Research and is a member of the NABE Outlook Survey Panel and Western Blue Chip Economic Forecast Panel.
