The following Webcast was recorded at The Premier Business Leadership Series in London on May 6, 2009.
Balancing the short term with the long term has never been easy, and in a time of massive turmoil in financial markets, it just got harder. A year on from forecasting some of the major impacts of the global economic downturn, we bring these three experienced economists back together to share what they have witnessed firsthand in economies around the world.
Our panelists will share insights as to what’s next for the local and global economies, what businesses should expect in the months ahead, and what is the likely outcome of the transformation we’re experiencing in the markets today.
Nicholas Owen moderates our panel discussion including:
- Gerard Lyons, PhD, Chief Economist and Group Head of Global Research at Standard Chartered
- Joseph Quinlan, Managing Director and Chief Market Strategist of Bank of America Global Wealth and Investment Management
- Dennis Turner, Chief Economist of HSBC Bank plc
