The Grant Williams Podcast: Julian Brigden - PREVIEW

My guest on the latest episode of The Grant Williams Podcast is my friend, Julian Brigden of MI2 partners – one of the finest macro analysts plying his trade anywhere in the world today.

In what turned out to be a wide-ranging and enormously thought-provoking conversation, Julian outlined just how problematic the range of options facing the world’s central banks has become as inflation tightens its grip on the world economy, forcing certain central banks to take policy decisions which run counter to the interests of others for the first time in more than a decade.

The knock-on effects for currencies of decisions made around interest rates and any possible steps designed to control yield curves are examined in the wake of the RBA abandonment of its YCC policy in recent weeks and Julian demonstrates just how high the stakes are and just how calamitous any policy mistakes will be at this juncture.

This is sobering stuff. Please make sure you’re sitting down while listening!
