Tony Alexander is a renowned Economics Analyst and Commentator in New Zealand.
Background:
Tony graduated from Canterbury University in 1984 with a Master of Arts (Economics) degree with first class honours and after briefly working in Sydney came back to New Zealand in 1987 to work in the financial sector. He worked for BNZ, one of New Zealand’s leading Banks, for 26 years (25 of which were as Chief Economist) until resigning in 2019 saying: “I've decided that, in a world of disruption, maybe it is time to disrupt myself, and have made the call to resign.”
He spends considerable time researching and writing about the New Zealand economy with special attention to SMEs, housing, business culture, and the role of Auckland in the NZ economy.
Experience and Accolades:
Tony has probably written more about the New Zealand economy than anyone else, having produced daily and weekly commentaries from 1987-1993, then weekly, monthly, quarterly, and many one-off pieces of analysis from 1993 through to 2019. At times he has been the most interviewed economist in New Zealand and was awarded the Residential Economist of the Year award in 2011.
Speaking: He is an accomplished public speaker much in demand and each year delivers between 50 and 100 presentations around New Zealand and offshore.
“What I concentrate on and where my true area of expertise lies, is translating the arcane world of economic developments and trends into a language understandable by most people in the business and home buying sectors.”
Tony started producing a new weekly commentary in October 2019, called ‘Tony’s View”. It is free and anyone can sign up. He also has a weekly column in OneRoof where he shares his insights into the property market.
