The global economy including Australia has experienced unprecedented and historic conditions recently which in some ways bring into question traditional economic thought and policies - record low-interest rates followed by massive rate hikes from central banks, record low unemployment, soaring inflation, demand-supply inequality, high consumer demand. All at a time when there is a major focus on addressing climate change.

Challenging conditions for individuals and businesses to make decisions around acquisitions with finance. Conditions that should inspire students to provide their take on the situation, what should and shouldn’t be done by central banks, regulators, and governments, and how the finance sector may play a role in the solution.
