Roger Bootle

Our Managing Director, Roger Bootle, one of Europe’s most prominent economists, is someone who gets the big issues right. Commenting about the current financial crisis, Norman Lamont, Britain’s Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1990 to 1993, said recently: “There were lots of warning signs – and many did warn at the time, including Warren Buffett and ... Roger Bootle.”

Norma Cohen from the Financial Times recently said "Among private sector economists, some of the most gloomy forecasts - now, seemingly, the most accurate - have come from Roger Bootle and Jonathan Loynes at Capital Economics."
