Jamie Hepburn

MA Arabic and Economics, 2000

Since completing my MA in Arabic and Economics at Edinburgh I have continued to focus on the Middle East. I spent a year working for a small risk consultancy advising on political, security & economic risk.

I then moved to the Middle East Economic Survey (MEES), an oil & gas journal, in Cyprus where I followed banking, finance, and economics-related news in the Middle East and North Africa.

I am now back in Exeter nearing the end of an MA in Middle East Policy Studies and still working for MEES part-time.
