IMF Rings Alarm on $100 Trillion Debt Surge

Update: 2024-10-16

Description

Ed Butler is joined by Stefanie Yuen Thio, joint managing partner at TSMP Law in Singapore and Sergio Guzman, director at Colombia Risk Analysis in Colombia.

We explore the IMF's prediction that global sovereign debt will exceed $100 trillion by the end of the year.

We also look into reports that biotech firm 23andMe may be on the brink of collapse. Once a tech industry favourite, the company now faces legal challenges and questions about its business model.

Plus, we follow Kamala Harris on her campaign trail in Georgia, where she's focused on energising Black and Latino voters.
