By Committee Member Matt Braithwaite-Young

The last Business Forum saw a lively discussion around the ups and downs of aviation, follies of fashion and agriculture advances.

The focus of the Business Forum is to tap the minds of the group to stimulate interesting discussions, connections, and insights. We use the Chatham House rule (yes, there is only one rule) so members can share sensitive information.

As you probably know, the business forum is blessed with a significant amount of brain power when it comes to risk, banking, and finance.

Did you know?  The current inflation breakout was predicted by the business forum very early in the pandemic as the hive-mind view was that pandemic pocket padding and supply shortages were always going to pump prices.

Coming up:  NAVIGATING THE FINANCIAL STORM: BANKING, RISK and FINANCE

If you’ve been considering coming along, this next meeting is the one for you.

With the Silicon Valley Bank blow-up, the Fed now backing commercial deposits and Credit Suisse sold off to arch-rival UBS, what will be the impact down under?

  • Will interest rates continue to rise?
  • What systemic risks still lurk out there?
  • When are consumers expected to start to spend more normally again?
  • How can I protect savings during inflation?  (Is now the time to buy gold? bonds? property?)
  • What will governments do next?

Interested in Business Forum?

Topic: BANKING, RISK & FINANCE

Agenda:
