Welcome to 'Leusder of Last Resort'

A newsletter on the latest IPE and finance research, starting in 2021.

Let me preface this by explaining that rather odd name. The FT’s very own contributing editor Brendan Greeley saw my clumsy central banking wordplay and deemed it perfect for this undertaking. And who am I to argue with the world's foremost expert on the technicalities of political boat parades.

It is a fact of contemporary life: there is too much damn content. It’s easy to miss something, however esoteric your interests. But If you’re broadly interested in (macro-)finance and international political economy, Leusder of Last Resort makes sure you won’t.

Every Friday, subscribers will receive a carefully-curated listicle containing the week’s most interesting digital content: essays, articles, papers, webinars, podcasts, other newsletters and Twitter threads. Every link will come with a concise summary and a few sentences locating it in a broader debate. (Yes, ‘I read them so you don’t have to’.)

Please consider subscribing for free if you are interested in the political economy of finance, plumbing, banking, money and all things related. I will send out the first newsletter in January.
