Exclusive podcast of speech given to The Builders’ Conference AGM by HSBC’s chief economist.
Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to be invited (top table no less) to the annual general meeting of The Builders’ Conference trade organisation in London. At a surprisingly well-attended event (attendance actually broke organisation records), the guest speaker was Dennis Turner, chief economist for HSBC. In an excellent and entertaining speech, Turner highlighted the key causes of the current economic crisis and highlighted what might be seen as the first green shoots of recovery.
The audio podcast – which you can hear by hitting the blue link below – runs to 34 minutes and the sound quality is not exactly studio quality. But if you’re seeking an insight into the current economy and what it will take for a recovery to take hold, I would strongly recommend that you set aside half an hour of your time.
