Debt dynamics - speech by Ben Broadbent

Given at the London Business School
Published on 23 January 2019

Ben Broadbent looks at the impact household and corporate debt has on the UK’s financial stability. He says how fast debt is growing seems to give us a better indication of financial risk than how high it is. He looks at why this is and what that means for the action the Financial Policy Committee takes.
