For three years, Richard served as member of the asset allocation board of a US$6.5bn Japanese corporate pension fund. In 1991, Richard warned of a banking crisis and major slump in Japan. In 1994, he coined the concept of ‘quantitative easing’. His book ‘Princes of the Yen’ (2001), on the role of central banks in financial crises, was a No. 1 bestseller in Japan. In his book ‘New Paradigm in Macroeconomics’, Palgrave Macmillan (2005), he warned about the dangers of the ‘recurring banking crises’, including the looming financial collapse in the UK, and detailed needed policy responses. Richard has been voted one of the top economists by investor surveys and is sought as a commentator by the media. He has given numerous television interviews in half a dozen countries, including on BBC, CNBC, ITV, ZDF, Bloomberg and Reuters TV, etc. He is frequently sought as keynote speaker in many countries.
