Growth, inflation and currency from $100 oil

Over the last few weeks, the conflict in the Middle East between the US, Israel, and Iran has continued longer than expected. What may seem like a geopolitical event is already having real economic consequences.

This episode of Open Dialogue focuses on the economic side of the conflict. From the risk of disruption in the Strait of Hormuz to the possibility of a global energy shortfall, the conversation unpacks how closely the world economy is tied to this region.

But this is not just about oil prices today.

A potential supply shock can ripple through supply chains, impact global growth, and influence inflation, currencies, and trade balances. For India, this raises important questions around energy security, the current account deficit, and overall economic stability.
