Todd Buchholz is a former Director for Economic Policy at the White House, a managing director of the US$15 billion Tiger hedge fund, and an award-winning economics teacher at Harvard.

Todd recently spoke at the GLL Members Forum Americas. When asked what the audience will learn from his keynote, he said, “We are living in confounding times. The economy came roaring back from COVID but has now slammed into an inflation wave that the Federal Reserve badly misjudged. Most of the Fed staffers who witnessed the last big wave in the early ‘80s are retired or dead. Opportunist politicians are blaming corporate greed. While household debt levels remain under control, governments cannot figure out how to handle the coming costs of retiree programs. On the foreign policy front, Vladimir Putin’s brutal attacks on Ukraine have backfired, enlarging the size of NATO.”
