Few economists have both the global and local experience of Stephen
Koukoulas. He is an economic thought leader in his role with his business,
Market Economics.

Stephen is often driving the debate on housing, consumer spending, investment strategies, interest rates and budget policy. He does this by drawing on his
unique background including his experience heading global research for TD in
London, his role as Chief Economist of Citibank and Former Senior Economic
Advisor to the Australian Prime Minister.

When it comes to the economy, Stephen continues to cover the big issues. He
does so independently, without the constraints of many of the bank economists
who are limited by what they can say. Stephen’s views are presented without
fear or favour.

Stephen is the go-to economist for many businesses, investors, fund managers
and the media. He is a regular contributor to Yahoo Finance and appears on
television including the ABC, The Project and Sky and is regularly called upon to
contribute to radio interviews across the country.

As a keynote speaker and panellist Stephen is asked to discuss the economy with
audiences as diverse as the corporate world to school students – an affirmation
of his ability to turn complex economic analysis into terms mere mortals can
understand.

Independent. Impartial. Entertaining.

Synopsis

Conferences are back!
The face to face interaction with inspirational speakers, delivering information and guidance to C-Suite executives, businesses and clients is effective and valued by all who attend.
2024 is shaping up with a mixed picture for the economy – some sectors will be doing well, others will be under pressure.
Which ones? As a conference organiser, what are the prime targets? Tourism? Retail? Construction? Superannuation? Defence? Real Estate? Personal care? Health? And what to look for?
Business plans can unravel or indeed get boosted because of changes in the economy. Unexpected interest rate hikes, tax reforms and changes in government policy are often unpredictable. Or are they?
Of course, clients must focus on their business – they are the experts and entrepreneurs, but keep an eye on factors outside your control.
Be alert to what is happening outside. It could make or break you.
