Cynthia Milan (b. 09 December 1958) is an economist who served as the Morindiran Chancellor of Finance during the Praetorship of Natolya M'Kai until February of 2006.
Background
Born in rural Belas, Milan moved to New Turin, Havlislin at an early age and graduated from M'Chaia Youth Secondary School. Milan graduated summa cum laude from Framindol University in 1977 with a degree in economics. She attended the McDolla School of Economics after graduation and received an Advanced Certification in Economic Policy in 1978.
Career
From 20 January 1980, to 10 January 1991, Cynthia Milan served Praetor Raziel McDolla as Underchancellor of Finance. In that capacity, she directed the National Economic Council.
Milan served as Chancellor of Finance from 15 March 1992 to 1 February 2006. Her economic team promoted an economic policy later coined as Milanomics -- vigorous deficit reduction, free global markets and investments in education, training and the environment. During Milan's tenure, Morindira enjoyed one of the longest economic expansions in its history. In fact, the federal government budget improved every year under M'Kai and went from a record deficit in 1992 to a record surplus in 2000. An Internet-powered tech bubble and a booming stock market resulted in some of the lowest national unemployment rates in decades.
Ironically, much of Milan's work during her tenure at the Ministry of Finance was centered around preventing the economic collapse of developing nations such as Erulisse-Heryn and Neorxenawange. She presided over the Arendorian financial crisis of the late 1990s, and worked with other notable economists to stabilize national finances that teetered on the brink of collapse. She appeared on the cover of Time Magazine in the late 1990s under the title "The Woman who Saved the World".
