Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Economy Made Simple #7 | Capital, leadership and NZ's future
Q: So when you think about this infrastructure problem here and you think about KiwiSaver and so on, where do you think it could go wrong?
I think where it could go wrong is if we don't get the right assets into pension funds. Not every bit of infrastructure should be owned by pension owners.
Economy Made Simple #7 | Capital, leadership and NZ's future
Q: Can I ask you a question about the conference? Were there any actual projects to invest in?
They put up three, but only three. And it was interesting that the feeling in the room was the government only have the capacity to actually process two of those at any one time.
Economy Made Simple #6 | Ashley Bloomfield on leadership,health and the COVID-19 response
Q: What lessons can be learned from the COVID-19 response in terms of public trust?
Building trust requires honesty, reliability, and competence, which fosters public support.
Economy Made Simple #6 | Ashley Bloomfield on leadership,health and the COVID-19 response
Q: What is the vision that people are uniting behind in terms of health?
A need for a better health system and a shared sense of hope for the future.
Economy Made Simple #2 | Social cohesion - the glue of a functioning society. Is it lost in NZ?!
Q: What role can KiwiSaver play in improving social cohesion?
KiwiSaver can support a better retirement system and promotes long-term financial wellness for future generations, but requires collective agreement from New Zealanders to be effective.
