Oxford Said Business School Talks

Emeritus Professor Andrew Baum, and Associate Fellow, Sabina Reeves discuss the recent fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on property markets worldwide. Recent rises in interest rates have caused significant uncertainty in property markets around the world. During the webinar, the panellists will explore the potential impact of these interest rate changes on the real estate market. Topics include: - How rising interest rates can lead to a decrease in the demand for property and increase the cost of borrowing, leading to a potential reduction in property prices. - The relationship between interest rates, bond yields, and real estate cap rates, and how changes in one can impact the others. - How investors can use this relationship to evaluate investment opportunities and mitigate risks in the market.

From the shock of the pandemic to war in Ukraine, steeply rising prices and some alarmingly wobbly banks: it can feel as if the world right now is lurching from crisis to crisis, and governments and businesses are running to catch up. In truth, though, no change happens in isolation, nor is it spontaneous. All these crises are linked, and underlying them is a big picture of five mega-trends that are shaping our long-term future on the planet: tech and life science, conflict, demographics, and global migration, with the combined challenges of environmental degradation, declining biodiversity, and climate change at the very centre. These issues have to be addressed at the same time and from multiple different perspectives. But how can this be done against a background of competing priorities and balancing the needs of individuals, organisations, and countries? MP and former investment banker, the Rt Hon Sajid Javid has been at the sharp end of tackling some of these challenges during a remarkable political career that includes spells as Secretary of State for Culture, Digital, Media & Sport; Secretary of State for Business; Secretary of State for Housing and Local Government; Home Secretary; Chancellor of the Exchequer; and Secretary of State for Health and Social Care. He will discuss these mega-trends and the intersection of politics, economics and business with Mari Sako, Professor of Management Studies at Oxford Saïd, on 9 May 2023.

Join Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz in conversation with our Director of Journalism Programmes Mitali Mukherjee for a discussion that will include expert contributions from an international audience of working journalists. Professor Stiglitz was Chief Economist at the World Bank and the founder of the Initiative for Policy Dialogue. He is a strong advocate for transparency and accountability in the financial sector, and a vocal critic of financial journalism that contributes to the perpetuation of financial bubbles and crises. Following Joseph’s presentation, leading academic Amir Amel-Zadeh, Associate Professor of Accounting at Saïd Business School, will be explaining how the role and purpose of modern companies has been redefined, with an ever growing need to understand and demonstrate how they create (and destroy) value beyond financials. In a 30-minute lecture, he will be highlighting the work of the School’s Rethinking Performance Initiative which has established a global centre of bold discussions, contemporary thought and innovative ideas on how to operationalise purpose through holistic performance measures and valuation. Amir’s work has been cited across the business press, including the Financial Times, and in a variety of policy documents by the EU, Bank of International Settlements, IMF and the World Economic Forum. Join us in person or online, live from Saïd Business School, to discuss.

Industry experts and researchers will try to bridge the gap between science and business. In this session we explore the role of science, technology, and leadership in accelerating empowerment, democratisation, and equitability in extraordinary times. Prof Bram Govaerts (Director General at CIMMYT/CGIAR), Kristoffer Gandrup-Marino (Chief of Innovation at UNICEF) and Dr Louisa Ludbrook (Vice-President Sales at Oxford Nanopore Technologies) share their vision and expertise in a conversation on what it is like to turn innovative ideas into scalable global solutions. The focus is on innovation in the areas of food security, progress for children, and democratisation of biological research. Oxford’s Founders & Funders is a community and digital event series that brings notable alumni and funders in conversation with researchers and executive students at the coalface of science and business; proudly supported by the Entrepreneurship Centre and Enterprising Oxford.

The Oxford Business Forum Africa, hosted by the Oxford Africa Business Alliance on 10 March 2023. Actions to address climate change raise particular challenges for social justice, and for the future of jobs in Africa. Even though there will be opportunities for generation of new green jobs, people working in industry and/or living in regions and communities where dependence on fossil fuel is high and where opportunities for economic diversification are limited are likely to see job losses. With the right choices and measures, African countries can manage the trade-offs and achieve both their development and social objectives to make sure the process of greening African economies doesn’t worsen existing inequalities. Speakers: NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman, African Energy Chamber Rolake Akinkugbe Filani, Chief Commercial Officer, Mixta Africa Ruka Sanusi, Executive Director, World Bank's Ghana Climate Innovation Center Elemchi Nwosu, Economic Development Practitioner (emerging markets) Subscribe to our channel ➤ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHIqMEje_NFJ2u24CVaNQvg?sub_confirmation=1 Visit our website ➤ https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/?utm_source=Youtube&utm_medium=SubscribeEndSlate Follow us on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/school/oxfordsbs https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/oxford-answers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/OxfordSBS | https://twitter.com/Oxford_Answers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oxfordsbs/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OxfordSBS #OxfordSBS #LifeAtSBS #OxfordAnswers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sb0EI1VUgpw
