Have you ever wanted to understand how interest rates work, but never know who to ask?

Well in this episode we’ve got you covered, as Dr Sam Wylie from Melbourne Business School gives us an insight into how this thing we call an economy actually works.

Kate chats to Sam about what economics really is and why it’s worth being aware of as consumers and investors, the role economists play, need-to-know concepts, why interest rates matter and why inflation isn’t always bad, plus supply and demand in a COVID-normal world.

We’re planning to do a Q&A with Sam in early 2022, so be sure to ask your questions in our FB Community, or email us at [email protected]
