The Price Of Everything

Welcome to The Price of Everything, a podcast that aims to shine a light on pricing. The cost of commodities – energy, food, etc. – play such an important role in our lives: accounting for around $5trillion worth of worldwide trade. But how are those prices actually calculated? Why do they move up and down so much? And what’s next? The Price of Everything is the first podcast dedicated purely to how pricing works. Introduced by Neil Bradford, Founder & CEO of General Index (GX), and hosted by David Elward, Senior Pricing Analyst at GX, The Price of Everything takes listeners through how the world’s commodities are priced and what the future looks like for them in the age of climate change and the energy transition. In this second series, we’re exploring the new markets coming to prominence, and how commoditisation in those sectors – hydrogen, voluntary carbon, sustainable aviation fuel and others – is often elusive; pricing and standards far less well defined; and value derived by their capacity to help combat climate change.
