A great wave of regulation is washing across business: capital rules for banks, cyber security and sustainability reporting mean corporate leaders appear to be in a new age of oversight. What’s driving this rule-making overdrive and how should business respond? Mark Kennedy and George Lagarias of Mazars, and Gavin Hinks of Board Agenda—also ask why London is struggling as a centre for IPOs and, with the Paris Olympics just around the corner, we ask whether showpiece events can really boost finance and economics? Those are some the big issues under discussion in this month’s Macro Memo podcast as it explores the international business landscape. All this and much more in Board Agenda’s podcast series, The Macros Memo, the global trends briefing for boards and directors.  You can access the podcast via Apple, Spotify and wherever you get your podcasts.
