Mal Maiden catches up with distinguished Australian economist, central banker, former public company director and published author Ian Macfarlane AC. They discuss the imperfect science that is central banking, touching in the challenges withdrawing the easiest monetary policy in recorded history, and debate the outlook for rates and inflation. Mal and Ian also look at Australian wealth inequality and unpick MMT – which Ian believes is neither Modern, Monetary or a Theory – and touch on George Ernest Morrison, One Remarkable Australian.
