Some seasoned advice about coping with the recession

Recent News

Mal Warwick, and his CEO Dan Doyle, have just published an interesting piece on how to approach the recession.

There is a mounting pile of comment on this subject - but this paper does offer something a little more structured than other 'thought pieces' I've read. Warwick and Doyle sketch three scenarios - shallow recession, recession and economic depression. For each they assess the implications of three different strategies - invest, focus on quality, retrench.

The paper concludes that whatever the scenario a focus on quality delivers the best or least worst results. The advice is consistent with what other commentators have been saying but this paper presents the case in a logical and organised way. Worth a read.
