In a new podcast collaboration with The Business Times, Simon Tay’s Political Café sees SIIA Chairman Prof. Simon Tay explore the political forces shaping business decisions, supply chains, and growth in a fragmented global economy.

The first episode, “The New Geography of Growth: Trading Beyond the Giants”, builds on Prof. Tay’s Politics That Matter column and his concept of a “minus-two” world. He is joined by Khoon Goh, Head of Asia Research at ANZ, for a candid 20-minute conversation on how businesses can navigate a more fragmented global landscape as traditional growth engines become less reliable.
