My career in finance was accidental, but at it did keep me from wasting my time on a Phd in economics from a US university.  I spend 35 years in the financial markets, most of that as a global fixed-income portfolio managers.  I am astonished that anybody who has 'invested' in the markets can believe in the rationality or that they don't need strong regulatory oversight.  Free market orthodoxy created many of the of the challenges highlighted by the donut economic framework.  They won't create the solutions.

Currently focused on the BS of global carbon markets  and working to install a new generation of leaders in the US.
