Hosted and created by Senior Finance Reporter Gillian Bowen, Making Money Easy looks at finance and economic news and, with the help of some prominent economists and experts, breaks it down to what you need to know. The discussions in this podcast do not refer to your individual circumstances and do not give individual financial advice. You should seek your own independent advice, relevant to you, when making financial decisions.
