About this episode
Why are financial markets still failing to price in the true economic costs of "Trump’s war"? How is the UK facing a "double whammy" of both higher interest rates and declining living standards? Why is it considered "ludicrous" to believe the economy could return to normal quickly, even if the war ended tomorrow?
Robert and Steph are joined by Mohamed El-Erian for an urgent deep dive into what the government can do to reduce the economic harm caused by the Iran war. Together, they assess the hit to global growth, and how rising energy and food prices will widen inequalities between British households.
The Rest is Money is brought to you by Octopus Energy, Britain’s smart energy pioneer.
