Do you ever wonder whether you should make an effort to better understand the economic data that is part of our daily news?

Wonder if there is an easy way to better understand this data and how it might affect your day to day life?

Then this episode is for you.

This week we chat to Brian Parker, Chief Economist of one of Australia's largest super fund, Sunsuper.

Brian agreed to chat about how specific economic indicators affect you in 3 specific areas:

How might it affect your day-to-day life?

How might it affect your job prospects?

How might it affect your retirement?

Brian also chatted to us about how the world has responded economically to the COVID crisis.

Brian joined Sunsuper in June 2015. Prior to joining Sunsuper, Brian worked in a series of economics, portfolio management, and communications roles with a range of firms, including Rothschild, JP Morgan, Citigroup, MLC, and the Reserve Bank of Australia, in a career spanning over 29 years.

Brian has an honours degree in economics from the University of Queensland, where he also taught macroeconomics, and is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
