Greenflation: Inflation’s New Variant (ft. Klaus Baader, Global Chief Economist at Societe Generale) | Finance, Markets, Green Transition
02/22/22 • 28 min
A new variant of inflation has emerged: green inflation, or Greenflation. Beginning with a reflection on recent economic trends and inflationary pressures, Kokou Agbo-Bloua explores the emergence of this phenomenon. From the trading floors to geopolitical tensions, he analyzes how the fight against climate change is reshaping economic dynamics and investor sentiments.
As the investigation unfolds, critical questions arise: How will central banks reconcile their mandates for price stability with the imperative to address climate-related challenges? Can governments and monetary authorities find common ground amidst divergent interests?
Kokou’s research extends to the heart of the matter: the implications of Greenflation on both monetary policy and the green transition. From the imperative of sustainable investment to the delicate balance between inflation management and fiscal policy, there’s a nuanced perspective on the path forward.
Through an engaging interview with Klaus Baader, Societe Generale's Global Chief Economist, Kokou examines the potential impacts of rising commodity prices, energy costs, and the push for environmental sustainability on inflationary trends worldwide.
In a world where the stakes are high and the challenges are manifold, the choice becomes clear: embrace the green pill for action. Join us on this journey of exploration and discovery as we confront the realities of Greenflation and chart a course towards a more sustainable future.
By tuning in to this episode, you gain valuable insights into the intricate interplay between sustainability, finance, and global markets. You also empower yourself with the knowledge and perspectives necessary to make informed decisions in an increasingly complex and dynamic economic environment.
