Welcome to the IEA Podcast. The Institute of Economic Affairs is the UK’s original free market think tank, founded in 1955. Our mission is to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analysing and expounding the role of markets in solving economic and social problems. Given the current economic challenges facing Britain and the wider global environment, it is more vital than ever that we promote the intellectual case for a free economy, low taxes, freedom in education, health and welfare and lower levels of regulation. We hope you enjoy listening!

The energy crisis explained
Friday Sep 24, 2021
Friday Sep 24, 2021
This week the headlines have been dominated by the energy crisis unfolding across Britain and much of the world. A shortage in the supply of gas, causing a spike in energy prices, coupled with a state-imposed price cap has led to energy companies going bust, and larger suppliers unable to meet demand from new customers.
To explain the current energy crisis, Kieran Neild, IEA Communications and Marketing Assistant, was joined by James Forder, our new Academic & Research Director at the IEA and Dr Lawrence Haar, who is a Senior Lecturer in Finance at Brighton University School of Business and Law.
