India is the world’s most populous country, and its economy is growing at 7% — but is that enough?

India could grow old before it grows rich, warns Raghuram Rajan, former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India and Professor at Chicago Booth School of Business. He joins Jay Sapsford on The Call to unpack the demographic boom, the chimera of manufacturing, and why India’s real opportunity lies in human capital.

The Call is a series of live video conversations featuring expert guests from the U.S. Chamber's Global Intelligence Desk. Live access to The Call is a benefit to the Chamber’s members; however, we are pleased to provide recordings of the calls for wider viewing thereafter. Information on membership is available here.
