The International Air Transport Association (Iata) has announced that its chief economist, Brian Pearce, will retire in July. A recruitment process has been launched to find a successor in time for a smooth transition.

“Pearce joined Iata in 2004 and since then he has built Iata’s evidence-based economic analysis capabilities into the most authoritative source of insight on aviation’s global performance,” said Iata’s director general and CEO Alexandre de Juniac.

“His team’s research and analysis have been powerful tools impacting how governments develop policies to realise the economic and social benefits of a successful aviation sector.” In addition De Juniac pointed to his contribution to promoting the airline sector’s progressive economic liberalisation, achieving an historic agreement to manage aviation’s climate change impact, and helping the world understand the devastating impact of the Covid-19 crisis on aviation.”
