Buy now pay later services have made it tempting to split a purchase into a few installments. But has it also given us a false sense of our purchasing power?

Professor Andy Pike has placed local authorities under his microscope for us, trying to figure out how to solve the crisis, as Sir Henry Daysh Chair of Regional Development Studies at Newcastle University. He's even written a book about the very topic called "Financialisation and Local Statecraft". When it was revealed in 2022 that Thurrock council in Essex faced a half-a-billion-pound black hole in its finances, it was assumed it was something that other local authorities couldn't repeat.  But since then, five other local authorities, including Nottingham, Birmingham, and Croydon, have fallen like dominoes, declaring bankruptcies and one in five local authorities in England is now projected to be insolvent by next year. Something is clearly going very wrong. And it's not just bin collections at stake but adult and child social care, schooling, libraries—the list goes on. Speak to anyone working in frontline council services, and they will tell you that any further cuts will decimate how we look after society's most vulnerable.  Season 5 of the We Society Podcast from the Academy of Social Sciences tackles the big questions through a social science lens. Throughout this series, you'll be hearing some of the best ideas to shape the way we live. Hosted by journalist and Academy President Will Hutton, we interview some of Britain's top social scientists and public figures from across the globe to explore their evidence-led solutions to society's most pressing problems.

Assistimos com preocupação à falta de casas, a preços e condições acessíveis para viver nas grandes cidades do nosso país. A tão famosa crise da habitação é tema recorrente nas notícias. Contudo, será que este é um problema inteiramente novo? Ou será que apenas mudam as causas para um problema que não é novo?O Gonçalo Antunes diz-nos que sim. E não fica por aí: em conversa com a Ana Markl, identifica os factos que estão na base deste problema (que realmente não é novo) do acesso à habitação. Explica como viviam as famílias em tempos não assim tão distantes e explica que ‘a história das cidades também se faz destas dificuldades do acesso à habitação'. Porém, a Ana Markl vai querer conhecer as razões actuais, as conhecidas e as menos faladas; vai questionar sobre se poderemos ter esperança num acesso mais fácil a ter casa, e fará ainda uma pergunta sacramental: que lições deveremos retirar para o futuro? REFERÊNCIAS E LINKS ÚTEISLeituras: Antunes, G.

In today's conversation, I speak with Camila Moreno, an environmental researcher, author and activist, who has worked extensively on land reform, deforestation, GMOs, agribusiness, and biodiversity issues. A leading climate-policy expert and critical voice on neoliberal climate policies and “green capitalism”, Camila's main area of study has been the interface between reasoning on climate change and the greening of capitalism. A researcher at the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, Camila has been following the climate negotiations since 2008, and in 2016 she authored a book titled Carbon Metrics and the New Colonial (2016), exploring these themes and more. The former coordinator of the Heinrich Böll Foundation, in the Brazil office, Camila has been accompanying the United Nation's Convention on Biological Diversity since 2006, and the Climate Convention since 2008. She is a working group member of Political Ecology of the Latin American Council of Social Sciences and the International Council of Red for a Latin America Transgenic Free (RALLT), and she served with the organizations Terra de Direitos (Land's Rights) and Amigos da Terra (Earth's Friends) as a researcher and activist. Recorded on 29th April 2023.

The “Finansialization of Everything” is a term few have heard of. Yet, personalised financial technology – like cryptocurrencies and blockchain – has the power to alter how people regularly interact. Our guest, Emmanuel Daniel, highlights in his book how emerging FinTech and never-before-seen transactions are fundamentally changing the roles of institutions, markets, and the commanding heights of the world economy. His insights provide fintech players with an out-of-box perspective of how they will bring about disruption and innovation.He talks to Regulatory Ramblings host Ajay Shamdasani about: the weaponisation of money; the next financial crisis and the ensuing global economic order; the nature of decentralised finance (DeFi), the lie of financial inclusion, and why he believes central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are doomed to fail.Emmanuel is the founder of The Asian Banker (TAB) and his next book is tentatively titled "The Winning Civilization". It follows the theme of financially driven changes covered in his previous work, "The Great Transition", which was released last year. Much of his writing is based on his three decades of experience founding and running TAB Global as a media, research, and consulting house. Emmanuel has extensive contact with leaders in banking and finance around the world. He won the Citibank Excellence in Business Journalism for Asia in 1999 for his work on the Internet in banking.Useful links in this episode:Emmanuel Daniel's website with book and other links - https://www.emmanueldaniel.com/Multi-CBDC mBridge by BIS Innovation Hub's Bénédicte Nolens - podcast.hkufintech.com Stablecoins: Risks, Potential and Regulation - SSRN Link The Financialization of Crypto: Lessons from FTX and the Crypto Winter of 2022-2023 - SSRN Link Financial Data Governance: The Datafication of Finance, the Rise of Open Banking and the End of the Data Centralization Paradigm - SSRN Link HKU FinTech is the leading fintech research and education in Asia.

In this Reboot Republic Rory talks to Leilani Farha, former UN Rapporteur on the Right to Housing, and director of the Shift, the new global movement for the right to housing. Leilani and Rory discuss a new direction for housing – where housing is understood and implemented as a human right to address the global housing crisis. In particular, they discuss the financialization of housing – where governments have brought investor funds – the vulture and vampire funds – into their housing markets, only to have them take over housing stock, and increasing rents, turning a Generation into their tenants, locking them into unaffordable rents and locking them out of home ownership. Leilani introduces the new Shift Directives which she and her organization have recently developed with input from global experts, as a proposal for Governments to tackle the financialisation of housing and tame the investor-fund takeover of housing.

Aris Komporozos-Athanasiou, Professor of Sociology at University College London, argues in Speculative Communities (Chicago) that speculation is no longer confined to the sphere of finance, but has, through virtual marketplaces, new social media and dating apps, become an integral part of the most intimate realms of our lives. Komporozos-Athanasiou will be in conversation with economist Grace Blakeley, author of Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation, James Bridle, author of New Dark Age, and Will Davies, Reader in Political Economy at Goldsmiths and author of Nervous States.

Where did we leave the conversation last time? After our 12 #Housing2030 podcast episodes about affordable housing that is mindful of climate sustainability, responsible land policy, better governance and finance were listened about 2,400 times, we launched the long-awaited “#Housing2030: Effective policies for affordable housing in the UNECE region”. The study that was led by Housing Europe, UNECE, and UN-Habitat draws on the experience of over 100 researchers, policymakers and housing providers from across the UNECE region and beyond, to define useful approaches, outline their advantages and disadvantages, and illustrate how smart affordable housing solutions can be applied locally. A compilation of over 160 tried and tested practices were in the hands of UNECE Housing Ministers on 6th October 2021 in the UN Headquarters in Geneva and just a month later, the publication made it to COP26 in Glasgow. However, the work is far from being done. The #Housing2030 report set just the beginning of very big questions that we felt obliged to come back to. So, we are embarking on a real journey to address the elephant in the room when it comes to housing affordability – the financialisation of housing and what are the tools that could tame it. Why are we choosing exactly this topic? The facts speak for themselves. Home ownership in many countries is declining and so is social housing. More are being forced to rent. Home prices and rent have risen dramatically throughout the pandemic and the IMF cautions that private investors are increasingly active in the real estate market. This podcast is a joint effort with the UNECE and UN Habitat, we are also grateful for the support from Irish Research Council and Irish Council for Social Housing who is a member of Housing Europe. I am Diana Yordanova, and in this new season of our #Housing2030 podcasts, I would like to do things a bit more differently. I am welcoming back two extremely knowledgeable researchers, the lead writer of the #Housing2030 report, Dr Julie Lawson who is an international researcher in housing systems at RMIT University Australia and Dr Michelle Norris, Professor of Social Policy at University College Dublin, who played a key role in the Housing2030 report, especially chapters on finance and governance. This time, they will be back-to-back with me addressing questions to influential decision makers about how can housing be looked not as a commodity but as a human right. We must build more effective critical capacities to address the harmful causes of financialisaton. This is why, we will do our best to enhance knowledge about the policy design, implementation outcomes and how different financial flows and housing outcomes can be achieved. Tune in for this new season of #Housing2030 podcasts.

It has been a topsy-turvy week for the global equity markets, having to deal with the Evergrande crisis in China. Will this event prove to be a catalyst triggering a market correction? Or is the worst over? In this exclusive interview with Puneet Wadhwa, Kotak Mahindra AMC Managing Director Nilesh Shah answers all these questions. Edited excerpts: Concerns around China's Evergrande crisis over now? Evergrande more of a China problem than a global one It's China's ‘Lehman Brothers moment' No global markets contagion, only a temporary setback Some impact: Real estate slowdown, metal stocks to be hit Will Evergrande ghost haunt global financial markets again? Difficult to predict market sentiment Events like Evergrande can act as a catalyst for market correction Where will Nifty be after 6 months – 15,000 or 20,000? Indian markets are fairly valued Corporate results good, Covid cases dropping, ample money flowing Evergrande crisis may force investors to look at India as alternative to China Biggest risk to markets: surplus liquidity, inflation or retail investor frenzy? None of these are risks People sceptical about markets, but still want to invest Indian market's fundamentals should be a worry We have a good opportunity to narrow economic gap with China If PLI scheme delivers, we may well become manufacturer to the world Investors looking for growth will then come to India What about the opportunity the US-China trade war gave? China is competitive; exporting more now than before pandemic India needs to leverage its strengths sector by sector US Fed has indicated a taper. Can global equity markets also take a breather? Excessive liquidity has created excessive valuation in asset classes like cryptos No such excess in the listed company/stock universe First impact of liquidity taper will be on NFT market, cryptos, unlisted equities The listed/stock market universe will be last to be impacted Should investors look at debt segment instead of equities? Debt was an option in March 2020 as well Investors must follow asset allocation What should be proportion for allocation to each asset class? Depends on life goals and risk profile Investment opportunities in the current market? Looking at an equal allocation between large, mid-and small-caps Some themes that will run long – Financialisation of savings: Beneficial for banks, NBFCs, AMCs, insurers, fintechs Export-oriented plays: Pharma, IT Industrial & engineering: Capex-driven play for the next 3-5 years

The combination of finance and technology is driving us towards the biggest change in human history in 500 years, says Viktor Shvets, my guest on this week's podcast.Shvets, a Hong Kong-based investment banker with Macquarie and a widely followed markets analyst, specialises in the intersection between finance, technology, politics and history. Viktor's background—he grew up in the former USSR before moving to Australia in his early 20s—has given him a unique perspective into the great geopolitical shifts we're living through.He's recently turned that perspective into a new book, “The Great Rupture”, a study of the profound impact of technology and financialisation on our collective future.I found the book erudite, thought-provoking, convincing and at times a little scary.Here are some excerpts from the podcast discussion:The past is no longer a guide to the future“The recipe for success over the last 500 years is now changing very rapidly.”Economic success, personal and political freedom“Is it possible to be wealthy, prosperous and even innovative even though you don't enjoy the same degree of freedom? The lessons of the last five centuries are that without freedom you can't have those things.”The industrial age and the information age“There are fundamental differences between the two. In the industrial age, capital was scarce, most activities were highly capital-intensive and labour was a primary driver of productivity. That's why you needed literacy and a skilled workforce.”“In the information age, we are drowning in capital and we have 5-10 times more than we require. Most activities these days are not that capital-intensive. The capacity constraints are much more fluid. And labour is losing marginal pricing power.”Capitalism is over“What we have right now is not capitalism. It's just a question of how we define it and what are the rules for the new world.”Financialisation is driving us towards a black hole “We are rushing towards a black hole. On the other side, a different world lies. The two forces pushing us there are financialisation and the information age.”“Any idea gets very easily funded. The low cost of capital is like pouring kerosene on the bonfire of the information age. It's accelerating the progress of technology.”Central bank money creation is no longer inflationary“The more you grow the money supply faster than nominal GDP, the more you create disinflation rather than inflation. Money is getting stuck in the cloud of finance, rather than reaching the ground where people live.”The end of the corporation“In the future, the idea of having a long-living corporation, transacting in its own name, will seem ridiculous.”Freedom may be optional“The mixture of technology and financialisation could lead us into a world where freedom becomes optional.”“Baby boomers' obsession with freedom, choice and efficiency led to many bad outcomes, from environmental degradation to income and wealth inequality. Going forward, we will have less freedom. An emphasis on fairness and equality will be far more prevalent.”Curtains for Facebook, Amazon and Netflix?“The large digital consumer platforms are sunsetting. They're suffering from diseconomies of scale and they are going to be attacked from a political, regulatory and societal level, as well as by start-ups.”

We are living through a unique moment in history. The pandemic has caused the deepest global recession since the Second World War. Meanwhile the human cost is reflected in a still-rising death toll, as many states find themselves unable—and some unwilling—to grapple with the effects of the virus. Whatever happens, we can never go back to business as usual. This crisis will tip us into a new era of monopoly capitalism, argues Blakeley, as the corporate economy collapses into the arms of the state, and the tech giants grow to unprecedented proportions. We need a radical response. The recovery could see the transformation of our political, economic, and social systems based on the principles of the Green New Deal. If not, the alternatives, as Blakeley warns, may be even worse than we feared. Speaker: Grace Blakeley is the author of The Corona Crash: How the Pandemic Will Change Capitalism. She is a staff writer at Tribune magazine, host of the 'A World to Win' podcast and author of 'Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation'. Grace previously worked as a research fellow for the Institute for Public Policy Research and as the New Statesman's economic commentator.

Peníze hýbou světem, ale kdo hýbe penězi? A v čem leží jejich skutečný význam pro dnešní svět? Po krizových 70. letech nastala v Americe revoluční změna, která postupně ovládla celou globální ekonomiku. Skončila éra nudného bankovnictví a započala se éra výsostně ne-nudná, plná rizik, ztrát, zisků, dluhů a algoritmů. Západ přehodil výhybku, započal se růst významu finančního sektoru a my všichni jsme se vykročili cestou financializace. Co jsou stínové banky? Kde podle investorského veterána Warrena Buffetta “tiká bomba”? A komu dnes banky nejvíc půjčují? Podíváme se na Wall Street i do londýnské City, propojíme financializaci s globalizací i nerovnostmi a vysvětlíme, jak ve skutečnosti vypadá “tištění” nových peněz.

In our sixth chapter, we look at the nature of how western economies - through losing their industrial economies, have gone through a period of globalisation which has led to western economies becoming financialisaed. We look at part of the reasons for this, and look at how the globalisation since the 1980s might be beginning to change.

Try discussing housing affordability without mentioning the financialisation of real estate property. This key concept has affected the general housing conditions in many countries - big funds buying tens of thousands of homes, expanding mortgage market that drives up prices, constantly increasing rents, gentrification and pricing people out. The financialisation of housing can easily sound complex, so we have invited someone who can explain it even to a grandma. You are with ‘Making a house a home’ - the podcast of the European federation of public, cooperative and social housing providers, Housing Europe. This is the 11th podcast of Housing 2030, the joint initiative of UNECE, UN-Habitat and Housing Europe that aims at bringing the best out of land and environmental policy, governance and finance to deliver housing affordability. I am Diana Yordanova and in this episode, we will look at the virtue of adequate funding and finance or more specifically, how governments can get to grips with the financialisation of homes. The guest of the show today is Professor Manuel Aalbers who is a human geographer, sociologist and urban planner teaching at the prestigious KU Leuven University in Belgium. His main research interest is in the intersection of housing and finance which as you will hear, has turned into one of the biggest challenges of our time that we need to solve if we want our communities to thrive. Manuel Aalbers will join the main panel of the upcoming Housing 2030 conference ‘Shaping investment pathways to deliver affordable housing’ which will take place online on 14th April. Last registrations are open at www.housingeurope.eu and www.housing2030.org. We are also curious to hear your thoughts, so feel free to reach out to us on communications@housingeurope.eu or via the #Housing2030 hashtag.

The Cultural Life of Money and Finance podcast explores money and finance through the arts and humanities – asking new questions about finance, the global financial system, and financial behaviour in the twenty-first century. In a series of conversations with researchers and practitioners, we look at how money is being, and has been, thought about in different contexts – across historical, cultural, ethical, religious, social, and material settings. The Cultural Life of Money and Finance project is based at the University of Leeds, and is led by Matthew Treherne, Rachel Muers and Mark Davis. The project is supported by the Leeds Arts and Humanities Research Institute, and by the Leeds Creative Labs scheme at the Cultural Institute at the University of Leeds. In this episode, Matthew is joined by Kathryn Brown, Senior Lecturer in Art History and Visual Culture at Loughborough University. They discuss how the development of art markets in the twentieth century displayed particular forms of financialisation; what art markets can reveal about financial practices; and how financial and aesthetic considerations can coincide in the experience of viewing art. Kathryn is the author of Matisse: A Critical Life (Reaktion, 2021), as well of articles on art markets and finance. To learn more about her work, see https://www.lboro.ac.uk/subjects/communication-media/staff/kathryn-brown/#tab5.

From its more humble origins to its modern-day status as a dominant yet destructive wonderbean, the story of soy concerns us all.   Soy is much more than tofu or tempeh. It's a global commodity crop: the driving force of animal agriculture and a hidden fuel of growing importance for our cars.   In this episode, we deep dive with Dr. Christine M. Du Bois into the history of soy and the vital role it continues to play in our lives.   Christine M. Du Bois is a former co-manager of the Johns Hopkins Project on Soy. She is the author of The Story of Soy (2018) and Images of West Indian Immigrants in Mass Media: The Struggle for a Positive Ethnic Reputation (2004) and is the lead editor and coauthor of The World of Soy (2008). She has published poetry at BourgeonOnline.com. She lives in Pennsylvania.   We discuss: How we use the modern soybean: ubiquitous yet unseen The bean's Manchurian origins The rise of the 'Cinderella crop' Mass deforestation, billionaire Blairo Maggi and the ‘United Republic of Soy’ The role of China, geopolitics and the future of soy   Links: The Story of Soy (2018)- Christine M.

‘History has ended, and capitalism is the last man standing. The innovations and freedoms enjoyed by the Global North have shown that the free market is the only viable economic system; it is almost impossible to imagine a coherent alternative.’ This was certainly the view of Margaret Thatcher, who was elected as Prime Minister amidst the turbulence of 1980s’ Britain. For many, unleashed from the shackles of pre-1970s’ economics, Thatcher restored order and long-term prosperity to a country in crisis: solving industrial disputes, taking on the unions, cutting income tax, and creating a nation of entrepreneurs and homeowners. As we will hear, economic commentator Grace Blakeley has little sympathy for this view. For Blakeley, neoliberalism was a system geared towards maximising share profits over goods and services: a dangerous economic model that puts shareholders first, customers second, and workers last. As we left ‘the golden age of capitalism’, the rising tides of climate catastrophe, global poverty, and vast increases in income inequality eventually came knocking at the doors of world governments... but nobody answered. As prime ministers and presidents pretended they weren’t home, a guest arrived who hadn’t the courtesy of knocking. In 2008, the world watched on as the market collapsed in the biggest economic crash since 1929. The house of cards had fallen – the contradictions of Western, free market economics had caught up with us. After the crash, governments announced £500bn in spending as they bailed out the world’s banks. Now, history repeats itself once more in the wake of the Corona Crash. Contents Part I.

In this very special Reboot Republic Podcast I am joined by Professor Manuel Aalbers, professor of urban and economic geography at the University of Leuven and author of The Financialization of Housing. Manuel explains how the financialisation of housing – the increased treatment of housing as a financial asset is leading to major problems and exclusion in housing systems, such as Generation Rent. He explains how and why global investors are turning homes into wealth accumulating commodities and outlines the downsides of schemes that use subsidies to try promote home ownership as they push up house prices and do not ensure access to housing overall. We also discuss the importance of increasing the provision of social housing, and some ideas for providing affordable housing through regulations on land development, cooperative housing and the decriminalisation of squatting of vacant housing and buildings in order to force their owners to rent out homes. Finally Manuel explains that COVID once more shows, as previous crises have also shown, that housing is a basic human right and that governments must make housing plans and policies to ensure people have access to it.

This week Eric sits down with commentator, journalist, and author, Grace Blakeley, to discuss her new book "Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation." Eric and Grace explore the nature of the neoliberal period and what the process of financialization has done to the economic, political, and social life of the Global North. The conversation touches on everything from the nature of financialization as intertwined with imperialism to the role of electoral politics versus that of mass mobilization and street organizing. Jeremy Corbyn and Bernie Sanders make cameos, as do Lenin, Hilferding, and Schumpeter. Oh, and also climate breakdown. It's socialism or barbarism, and the choice is ours.

In this episode we speak to the economist, journalist and author of Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation, Grace Blakeley about what Financialisation is, the difference between political and economic democracy, the position of the Labour Party under Keir Starmer, the sacking of Rebecca Long Bailey, the potential impact of a No Deal Brexit and the West's economic interactions with China. 

Safe to say that he Economy as we formally know it has taken a nose dive. Britain has lost 20% of GDP over the course of lockdown as businesses closed up and demand slumped to save the population from Covid-19. But what is the British economy actually made of? Is GDP representative of the actual production of everyday people in the UK? Has chasing these golden numbers skewed the british economy into a place where traditional working class jobs are less important that they used to be? If there is to be a recovery and a green recovery at that, what does it look like under a Conservative government?To discuss the effects of finance on the environment and the working class  we are joined by economist and writer Grace Blakeley (@graceblakeley).

Covid-19 has thrown the idea of class, and class society, into sharp relief, ridiculing many of our economic system’s foundational premises - for one, the idea that as a worker, your pay cheque is a reflection of your value to society. Facing the possibility of economic collapse and a new great recession, the overton window has shifted dramatically on state intervention in the economy, the value of public services, and the credibility of ideas such as universal basic income. But how is the current crisis likely to shift the balance of power between capital and labour? How can working people build class power amidst the lockdown? And how can we express meaningful solidarity, at the community, national and international level? In our latest episode of Radicals in Conversation, these questions are foregrounded, amidst a wider discussion of the meaning of class today. Joining us on the panel are Ben Tippet, author of Split: Class Divides Uncovered; Grace Blakeley, author of Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation, and Emily Scurrah, a researcher at the New Economics Foundation. --- Podcast listeners can get an exclusive discount on Split and other books related to this episode, at plutobooks.com/podcastreading.

Lisa Magnani analyses the role of Social Finance as an example of financial innovation and provides an insight into the underlying inequality of power between Labour and Finance.

This month we ask - what's going on with our pre-school childcare and elderly care home services? We take a long hard look at the financialisation of our services and what we can do about it.

Briahna talks to author Grace Blakeley about our era of hyper-capitalism, characterized by the growing dominance of the financial sector and weakened labor. Then, Hear the Bern producer Ben Dalton interviews an anonymous Amazon worker, who describes the company's union busting, mandatory overtime, and relentless monitoring of workers. Grace's book, Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation: https://repeaterbooks.com/product/stolen-how-to-save-the-world-from-financialisation

In her first book Stolen: How To Save The World From Financialisation, author and economics commentator Grace Blakeley argues that we are living through the death of an old economic order based on the failed economic policies of the 20th century. As Western countries struggle to manage the rise of right-wing extremism from within and the threat of extinction from without, it is now easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. The alternative to the bleak future this portends is a radical move towards democratic socialism, which Blakeley argues offers us the chance to free ourselves from the financial imperatives that have determined our lives for more than half a century, and that can avert our current course towards self-destruction.  Hosted on Acast.

The Practical Origins of Neoliberalism and Financialisation with Samuel Knafo by Political Economy for the End Times

Abby Innes (LSE), Antonio Andreoni (SOAS), Komon Doulis (BEIS), Tom Ferguson (INET), Geoffrey Owen (LSE), Janet Williamson (Trade Union Council) Chair: Abby Innes, London School of Economics Presenter: Antonio Andreoni, SOAS University of London Panel Discussion: Komon Doulis, Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), UK Government, Tom Ferguson, Institute for New Economic Thinking, Geoffrey Owen, London School of Economics, Janet Williamson, Trade Union Council Innovation by Britain’s firms will be a key determinant of national success in an increasingly competitive global environment for high-value industries. As Britain considers how to develop an industrial strategy ‘fit for the future’, however, the decline in long-term productivity in the UK continues to puzzle managers, academics and policy-makers. Recent research has highlighted the need to examine sectoral dynamics and include questions of industrial policy in a relevant historical context. Such work has helped to focus on the specific British industries and firms where issues of competitiveness, productivity and innovation need to be studied in detail. Conceptually, however, it remains necessary to enhance our understanding of the interplay between the development of innovative capabilities and the specific governance conditions that are required to generate sustained productivity growth at firm and industrial-ecosystem level. Developing such capabilities in innovative enterprises requires the commitment of financial resources to collective and cumulative learning processes within both the firm and its ecosystem. This commitment relies on the abilities and the incentives of those executives who exercise strategic control over the corporate allocation of financial resources and returns. We thus need to consider whether strategic decision-making within UK firms over the past two decades has been influenced by destructive financialization practices. The GoFinPro project has added to existing research into issues of productivity and innovation in UK industry by conducting historical firm-level research in order to build comparative studies of firms and sectors to examine the potential influence of financialisation practices on the development of UK firms within their sectoral and national specificities. The key manufacturing sectors of pharmaceuticals and aerospace were chosen to investigate indicators that link changes in corporate governance and financial behaviour to innovative capabilities and productivity performance. The GoFinPro Conference to be held at SOAS will bring together academics, policy makers and industry experts to discuss the findings of the study. The comparison of financialisation metrics of top UK firms with those of US and other European countries will consider how such practices have influenced productivity and competitiveness and what policy measures have facilitated or encouraged their adoption. The sectoral studies highlight the specific dynamics that explain why some UK firms have become more prone to value extraction that is not justified by value creation. The implications of the findings for future UK policy on corporate governance will be subject to debate. The GoFinPro project has been funded by the Gatsby Foundation and has been carried out at SOAS University of London in collaboration with Institut Mines Telecom Business School in France.

Costas Lapavitsas (SOAS) A crucial feature of financialisation is the extraordinary increase of financial profits in relation to non-financial and total profits. The reasons for this increase are not well understood. To tackle this issue this paper adopts a Marxist approach to financialisation as a distinct historical period in the development of mature capitalism. On this basis it builds a macroeconomic model with a non-financial and a financial sector which is also stock-flow consistent along the lines of Godley. The model shows that the ratio of financial to non-financial profits depends positively on the net interest margin and the non-interest income of banks, but negatively on the general rate of profit, the non-interest expenses of banks, and the ratio of the capital stock to interest-earning assets. The model is subsequently tested for the US economy showing that financial profits have varied mainly with respect to the net interest margin, while non-interest income has also played a significant role. The crisis of 2007-9 represents a turning point in this respect, ushering in a period of weaker financial profits. Costas Lapavitsas is Professor in Economics at the SOAS Department of Economics.

The continued expansion of industrial-scale chemical-intensive agriculture around the world relies on one central powerful myth: only industrial agriculture can feed the world.   Timothy A. Wise - author of Eating Tomorrow - joins us to discuss why, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, governments continue to invest in a model of farming that is devouring the natural resources on which future food production depends. By choosing the path of industrial agriculture today, we are, quite literally, “eating our collective tomorrows”. Tim and I discuss: Who actually “feeds the world” Who (or what) industrial agriculture feeds The failing Green Revolution in Africa: feeding corporations, not the hungry Alternative local agroecological solutions in Malawi and Mozambique nourishing people and planet How agroecology, not hybrid seeds, builds lasting resilience against floods and drought, the ‘evil twins of climate change’: Global trade and market failure: NAFTA devastating biodiversity and Mexican farmer livelihoods India’s National Food Security Act: the most ambitious anti-hunger program in the world and why the US opposes it   Timothy A. Wise directs the Land and Food Rights Program at Small Planet Institute. He is a Research Fellow in the Globalization Program at Tufts University’s Global Development and Environment Institute. With a background as an economic journalist and an international development practitioner, Wise’s research and writing have covered U.S. farm policies, trade and agricultural development, agricultural biodiversity, food prices and biofuels, and Mexico’s maize economy under the threat of genetically modified maize. He is also the former Executive Director of Grassroots International and a writer and editor at Dollars & Sensemagazine, and co-author of Confronting Globalization: Economic Integration and Popular Resistance in Mexico,The Promise and the Perils of Agricultural Trade Liberalization: Lessons from Latin America, and A Survey of Sustainable Development: Social and Economic Dimensions.   Links: Timothy A.

If 'globalisation' was the dominating concept of the 1990s and 'neoliberalisation' followed in the 2000s, then 'financialisation' is arguably one of the hottest candidate for succession in the 2010s. Its inflationary use has been debated for some time now, without actually diminishing its appeal in various contexts. In order to think through the stakes attendant to the continued research of financialisation and its multiple operationalisations, we invited two active protagonists in these debates. Ève Chiapello and Pauline Gleadle discussed each other's work and critically assessed the ways in which the study of financialisation continues to shape the current critical debates about global finance and global capitalism more generally.

Four grain trading giants - collectively known as the ABCDs - dominate international grain trade in our global food system. Knowing who they are and what they do is vital to understand the whys and hows of our modern food supply.  A key branch of ABCD power and influence are their financial subsidiaries. Financialisation in the food system today has widespread and alarming implications. Local food movements, farmers and consumers must take heed of these global forces, or risk being crowded out by private interests pursuing profit over people and planet. Dr. Jennifer Clapp joins us to discuss: Who the ABCDs are, where and how they operate, and why they dominate Recent ABCD mergers and acquisitions and the impact of Trump’s trade war with China The merging of food & finance: the financialisation of futures markets How financial speculation helped fuel the 2008 food price crisis Why financial investors moved en masse to acquire farmland ABCD involvement in the financialisation of the food system How to regulate invisible giants and the financialisation of food   Dr. Clapp is a Canada Research Chair in Global Food Security and Sustianability and Professor in the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability at the University of Waterloo, Canada. She has published widely on the global governance of problems that arise at the intersection of the global economy, the environment, and food security. Her current research focuses on the implications of financial markets and transnational corporations for food system sustainability. Her most recent books include Speculative Harvests: Financialization, Food, and Agriculture (with S.

Banking used to be a laid-back profession involving long lunches and the odd loan approval to a business. Over the last few decades that has all changed as financial institutions focus increasingly on selling products to the public and thinking up ever more complicated money making schemes for the world markets. This process - often described as financialisation - has meant increased profits for the banks but is also seen as a threat to the rest of the economy. Authors Rana Foroohar and Joshua Ryan-Collins argue that some financial institutions may once again repeating old mistakes

With Grace Blakely  The ‘Private Finance Initiative’ still sounds like a dry, technical procedure that nobody could get too excited about. That’s what it’s supposed to sound like. Journalists and government have colluded for 25 years in making sure that the public don’t take too much interest in it. In fact the PFI has been central to UK government policy since the mid 1990s and has been the vehicle through which huge chunks of the British public sector have been privatised without any mandate from the people. One of Stuart Hall’s last great public interventions was to call for the launch of a public campaign against this programme in 2000 – he could see how serious its implications were. The story of the Private Finance Initiative reached its long-predicted denouement this year with the collapse of Carillion, a company employing 43,000 workers, responsible for dozens of contracts to deliver services across the UK public sector. The biggest bankruptcy in British history has exposed what many economists and political commentators have been saying for years: the PFI was a disastrous policy that was never really intended to benefit the public, but to enable multinational corporations to generate vast profits at the expense of the tax-payer, local authorities, schools and hospitals But what exactly is the PFI, how does it work, and why are the Blairites still opposed to actually scrapping it?

Prof Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), Prof Jan Toporowski (SOAS). IPPE financialisation working group invites you to a discussion on ‘Financialisation and the periodisation of capitalism’. As the concept gains prominence within social sciences, debates arise about situating financialisation within the history of capitalism. Is financialisation a contingent product of the economic shifts of the 1970s and 1980s? Is it a long-run tendency of capitalism? Join us for a discussion about these issues with Prof. Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof. Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), and Prof. Jan Toporowski (SOAS). The speakers will introduce their different viewpoints and discuss some theoretical implications concerning the incorporation of contextual aspects with respect to space and time, based on questions prepared by IIPPE financialisation working group. A general Q&A session will follow. The event is open to everyone, and is chaired by Dr Ulrich Volz, head of the department of Economics at SOAS. Speaker(s): Prof. Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof. Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), Prof. Jan Toporowski (SOAS), Ulrich Volz (SOAS) Organiser: IPPE Financialisation Working Group Event Date: 25 April 2017 Released by: IIPPE Podcasts

Sébastien Lechevalier (EHESS) This paper analyses the revival of industrial policies from the late 2000 s in Japan and Korea and their limitations. The paper first adopts the perspective of historical institutionalism to focus on the relation between IPs and financial systems and study their evolution over the last 40 years. Second the paper mobilizes the concepts of institutional complementarities and hierarchy, and discusses the limits of this revival in a context of liberalized financial systems, to which government entities in charge of industrial policies have contributed. A major finding is that, in the context of financialization, past complementarities of the developmental state have weakened and contradictions have arisen. It has resulted in a restructuration of state capabilities to design and implement industrial policies, and to its inability to subordinate finance to its goals, despite the discourses and ambitions of governments. However, comparison between Japan and Korea also allows the identification of some significant differences in the initial institutional arrangements and in the process of institutional change, pertaining to sources of greater state capabilities in Korea than in Japan in the current period. This paper is one of the outcomes of INCAS, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions R.I.S.E funded project under the European Commission’s H2020 Programme. Speaker biography: Sébastien Lechevalier is Professor at the EHESS (Paris), in charge of the chair "Asian capitalisms". He is also founding President of the Fondation France. Being an expert on the Japanese economy, he was previously a visiting researcher at the Maison Franco-Japonaise in Tokyo, Hitotsubashi University, the University of Tokyo, Waseda University and Kyoto University.

Susan Newman (University of the West of England), Sophie van Huellen (SOAS), Joseph Baines (King's College London) and Tania Salerno (University of Amsterdam) Deregulation of commodity futures markets in the early 2000s precipitated a growing interest of financial investors in commodity derivative markets, including food. This ‘financialisation’ of commodity markets arguably fuelled price volatility and speculative bubbles. The link between financial markets and food prices has served as one of the main transmission channels of the financial meltdown in 2008 to world trade and the real economy, with severe consequences for food security and income for some of the world’s poorest. At the same time, liberalisation of domestic markets paired with soaring and volatile food and fuel prices over recent decades have fostered an increasing dominance of large corporations in agri-food sectors with implications for the distribution of income across stakeholders. This panel aims to draw together several papers that shed light on the complex and multitude of linkages between finance and food. This episode features Panel 3 of the Workshop on ‘Political Economy Approaches to Food Regimes.’ This one-day workshop, was organised by the SOAS University of London Food, Nutrition and Health in Development Research Custer and brought together topics in contemporary food regime studies examined from a political economy perspective. Topics included inequality and food security, the state and food sovereignty, food regimes and the politics of conflict and financialisation of food. Paper One: ‘Financialisation Along Agro-Food Chains - Towards an Analytical Framework’ by Dr Susan Newman (University of the West of England, UK) Paper Two: ‘How Financial Investment Distorts Food Prices: Evidence from US Grain Markets’ by Dr Sophie van Huellen (SOAS University of London, UK) Paper Three: ‘Profiting from Food Crisis? Farmers, Commodity Traders and the Distributional Dynamics of Financialization’ by Dr Joseph Baines (King's College London, UK) Paper Four: Cargill’s ‘Global Acquisition Agenda’: Increased Control Through Financialisation by Dr Tania Salerno (University of Amsterdam, Netherlands) Organiser: SOAS University of London Food, Nutrition and Health in Development Research Custer Event Date: 19 January 2018 Released by: SOAS Economics Podcast

Prof Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), Prof Jan Toporowski (SOAS). The IIPPE Financialisation Working Group invites you to a discussion on ‘Financialisation and the periodisation of capitalism’. As the concept gains prominence within social sciences, debates arise about situating financialisation within the history of capitalism. Is financialisation a contingent product of the economic shifts of the 1970s and 1980s? Is it a long-run tendency of capitalism? Join us for a discussion about these issues with Prof. Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof. Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), and Prof. Jan Toporowski (SOAS). The speakers will introduce their different viewpoints and discuss some theoretical implications concerning the incorporation of contextual aspects with respect to space and time, based on questions prepared by IIPPE financialisation working group. A general Q&A session will follow. The event is open to everyone, and is chaired by Dr Ulrich Volz, head of the department of Economics at SOAS. Speaker(s): Prof. Photis Lysandrou (City University of London), Prof. Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London), Prof. Jan Toporowski (SOAS), Ulrich Volz (SOAS) Organiser: IIPPE Financialisation Working Group Event Date: 25 April 2017 Released by: SOAS Economics Podcast

This week we have the second part of our interview with Professor Andrew Kliman. We continue our discussion about his latest book - ‘The Failure of Capitalist Production’ - and in particular focus on Andrews critique of the Underconsumptionist Theory of Crisis, which is pretty dominant on the Marxist and non-Marxist left alike. We hear how the empirical evidence sits squarely in the face of this theory, what role financialisation has actually played in the economy, and the similarities between Keynesianism and Underconsumptionism. We also talk about the new book Andrew is working on, and just how impressed I am by how well Marx’s theories are able to explain the world around us today. You can find the article for the New Left Project that Andrew mentions in the interview, critiquing Sam Gindin's view of the crisis as financial, here: http://www.newleftproject.org/index.php/site/article_comments/clarifying_secular_stagnation_and_the_great_recession And you can find Sam Gindins response to Andrew here: http://www.newleftproject.org/index.php/site/article_comments/underestimating_capital_overestimating_labour_a_response_to_andrew_kliman Enjoy!
