Today’s guest is Shamubeel Eaqub, and economist, author and commentator.

In this episode Shamubeel and I discuss New Zealands productivity has not kept up with our OECD peers. Reasons for this include some things we cannot change, such as the fundamental realities of our small population and remote location at the bottom of the South Pacific, but also things we can, including policy settings, institutions, incentives, long-termism, and culture. 

Some very impressive companies have been built in New Zealand by some truly great minds, yet it would seem that the success of these companies has not been due to the settings, but rather in spite of them.
