Rebecca Patterson
Japan’s Heavy Metal PM + Political Threats to Markets + China’s Sad Horse

BWC Vice Chair Rebecca Patterson is co-hosting the Council on Foreign Relation’s newest podcast, The Spillover. With co-host Sebastian Mallaby, the podcast will explore the ripple effects of global events, exploring the intersection of policy, geopolitics, economics, technology, and finance. Their inaugural episode explores the “Fragile Four” economies: the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, and France, and the growing spillover of politics into financial markets. She examines how a shifting macroeconomic environment is making markets more reactive to political shocks. Furthermore, she highlights why these pressures are beginning to expose new economic and political fractures.
