Housing, Financialization And Its Economic Effects
In the second episode of this series we discuss the financialisation of housing and its economic effects. We are joined by human geographer Manuel Aalbers and geographer Desiree Fields to discuss how housing has become financialised in the past decades, what role has this had in rising house prices, and how digital technologies have exacerbated the use of housing as an asset class. We then catch up with Nic Vrieselaar from Rabobank and Stephen Le Fanu from Bristol and Bath regional capital to discuss mortgage and tax dynamics, and alternative means for property investment with positive social impact.
