Simplifying economic policy news
Welcome to Policy Square by Bhargavi Sakthivel and Nikita Singh. We are two economists who are fascinated by Economics but despair at its obscurity and inaccessibility.
If you are someone who has ever opened a financial news article and been completely put off because of the elitist jargon used in the article, this blog is for you. For many, the curiosity to learn more about economics and current affairs often clashes with the presumptuous tone and language used in the news articles. As two economists who were once outsiders to this exclusive group, we have often struggled with this exact problem and via this blog, our aim is to act as that bridge and provide a way for anyone irrespective of their prior economic background to learn a little something about Macroeconomics.
