Economic history often comes hand in hand with geopolitics when considering its impact on the financial sector.

Historical analysis helps identify recurring cycles, such as periods of growth and recession, and understand how different factors, like government policies or geopolitical events, influence economic stability. It serves as a guide, offering lessons that can help prevent past mistakes, and replicate sucessful strategies.

The conversations with Peter Frankopan, Niall Ferguson, General Petraeus, and Andrew Roberts, discuss social and economic histories, analysing their impact on the wider industry.
