Description

In this episode, business leader and ex-President of the Confederation of Indian Industry, Naushad Forbes, speaks with former journalist and philanthropist Rohini Nilekani, about what a good market looks like. They discuss what markets must include, whom they should serve, and the role they must play in enabling inclusive economic growth. Highlights –  - There’s a need to create a better balance between the public (government), private, and civil society sectors, such that the benefits of the market are evenly distributed across all.  - What is the role that markets can play in creating a more inclusive pattern of growth, one with less environmental degradation, and more equity, more justice? - What needs to change about the processes currently in place for economic reforms, to ensure sustainable and inclusive growth? - We need to create democratic and safe platforms to listen to and talk with all citizens, not just experts and people at the top, in order to ensure a more equitable economy.
