Macro Hive Conversations With Bilal Hafeez
Ep. 7: Martin Wolf On The Scale Of The COVID Crisis, Future Debt Problems And US Isolationism

You can listen to the podcast on Apple or Spotify.

In this episode, I have a wide-ranging conversation with the FT’s Chief Economics Commentator, Martin Wolf. He brings a depth to any topic that is often lacking anywhere else. On the podcast, we discuss:

1. The parallels of the COVID crisis with past crises such as the ones seen in the 1970s
2. The uniqueness of this crisis
3. How well policymakers have done so far
4. The role of international organisations and US hegemony
5. The challenge for EM countries
6. How China will be viewed after this crisis
7. What tensions will emerge in the EU
8. How the world will look differently after COVID

Martin is very articulate and knowledgeable, so make sure to listen to the whole episode and subscribe to the show on Apple, Spotify or wherever you go for your podcasts. You can follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn.
