Tom Vosa - On the Economy

Tom Vosa of Clydesdale Bank addressed the Watford Chamber of Commerce at Moor Park this morning, Oct 7th 2011.

He made some interesting observations on the economy, whilst acknowledging the seriousness of the situation he made a good attempt at putting a positive spin on the worlds economy.

Here are a couple of interesting quotes:

"It is the central irony of the financial crisis - caused by too much confidence, borrowing, lending and spending - that it cannot be resolved without more confidence, more borrowing, more lending and more spending....." (Larry Summers, former US Treasury Secretary, September 2011.)

"The global economy is in a dangerous new phase" (IMF WEO, September 2011)


Other headings that were discussed:

The World Economy - The Headwinds Grow


Policy paralysis has led to the 'good' being sold to pay for the 'bad'.






Tom was able to answer questions from the audience
