The Lectures

Students from Year 9 to Year 13, Parents, and Allanians are all invited to be inspired by talks from our guest speakers.
The Lectures seek to enrich students’ interest in subjects outside of their lessons, delivered by leading people in their respective fields.      

Roger Martin-Fagg

Roger Martin-Fagg is an economist who combines insight into the financial and policy worlds with management strategy. As such he delivers both an economic outlook, and what organisations should do to prepare. After studying Economics, Economic History and Geography Martin-Fagg worked as an economist with the New Zealand Government.

Martin-Fagg specialises in making economic activity, trends and indicators understandable to non-economists and cuts through the jargon to reveal what the numbers, market shifts and policy announcements really mean.

The lecture will cover:

The causes of the current inflation rate in particular demographic profiles

The concept of monetary equilibrium and the causes of boom and recession

Current indicators and what they tell us about the next three years
