As a financial market analyst and investment consultant, my work involves understanding, analysis and insight into global economic events.

I am best known as an economic commentator in the Irish media and for my weekly column in the Irish Times entitled ‘Serious Money’.  My views on world markets are intended to be informative, thought-provoking, and controversial when necessary.

The commentary is designed to keep readers abreast of important financial market issues, and to help both individual and professional investors in their effort to adopt prudent investment policies that not only enhance value, but also preserve capital in these turbulent times.

I invite you to share your own views on the world economy and join the debate.
