Ever wondered what influences interest rates? Why should we care about inflation? And what exactly is counted in GDP? If so, this is the podcast for you. It’s The Economy breaks down the complex economic ideas we may have all heard of but don’t fully understand. All that in under 15 minutes. Our host, Nicola Walton, is keen to stress that she is NOT an economist and that you don’t need to be either to understand economics. To demystify the topics at hand, each week she is joined by an economics expert to talk us through it all. It’s The Economy is brought to you by Intelligence Squared and hosted by Nicola Walton, a financial journalist and author of ‘How To Report Economic News’. Executive Producer: Farah Jassat; Producer: Lovejit Dhaliwal; Technical Support: Mark Roberts and Catharine Hughes.
