Thrilled that my new book #Economica features in CityAM on publication day today: “Business has never been a man’s world – meet the women who bankrolled history” www.cityam.com/business-has... #womenwealthpower @headlinebooks.bsky.social with thanks to @alysdenby.bsky.social

I'm clinging on to Christmas! So sharing our beautiful 🎄 - gifted by the city of Oslo, which they've done every year since 1947 in gratitude for British support to Norway during WW2 (Thank you Oslo, and a reminder of the need for friendship between nations). Nelson's column and far away, Big Ben x
