Dr Andy Dauhajre is one of the top economists of the DR. He returned to the DR after getting his doctorate at Columbia University in NYC.
He was part of the Dominican team that placed on 9/11/01 the first sovereign bonds of the Dominican Republic in NYC (at the Morgan Stanley office.) On the day they were finishing the negotiations on the interest rate, the meeting was interrupted because one of the guys from Morgan Stanley said that the system temporarily went down because a small airplane crashed into one of the towers. To wait a few minutes until the system is back up. Andy was the one that after a while of the team talking among themselves about the small airplane that crashed (they hadn’t seen the TV images yet), he suggests for turn on the TV to see what was happening since even a small airplane crashing into the Twin Towers was going to be heyday news for TV news outlets. Then they see the large hole, fire and smoke (at that moment realizing it was an airplane but not small) and a few seconds after turning on the TV they see live the second airplane hit the other tower. After that they were told the market was closed and no one knew when it will open again. Immediately afterwards the group Dr Andy Dauhajre was a part of call to then president Agr. Eng. Hipólito Mejía in Santo Domingo who himself thought they were in the Twin Towers at the moment of the attacks. They assured him they weren’t in the Twin Towers, they were suppose to be there at 3pm that day.
It took the team about a week to return to Santo Domingo since all flights to and from the US were cancelled on 9/11. When he arrived at Santo Domingo he gets a call asking him if he could be early in the morning of the next day in NYC because there was a short window to place the first US$500 million of the sovereign bonds. That night he had to tell president Agr. Eng. Hipólito Mejía that he couldn’t go to his house to present him everything they did in NYC because he had to immediately fly back to NYC. The first sovereign bond of the DR was placed in the market at NYC on September 20, 2001; 9 days after 9/11.
