Career

Kovzanadze has published six books and more than 50 articles in economics, including problems of the genesis, development and manifestation of systemic banking crises, their forecasting and prevention.

Being an MP, he served as a chairman of Finance and Budget Committee of the Parliament of Georgia (2004–2008) and as a chairman of the Task Force of EBRD/ OECD on corporate governance of banks in Eurasia (2007–2009).
