With you at the center of it all.

Banking is our craft.
You're listening to The Globalist, first broadcast on the 28th of April 2025 on Monocle Radio.
The Globalist, in association with UBS.
Hello, this is The Globalist broadcasting to you live from Midori House in London.
I'm Georgina Godwin.
On the show ahead...
The funeral of His Holiness the Pope took place on Saturday.
We'll hear about the atmosphere,
the significance of the service and what happens next for the Vatican and the Catholic Church.
Also coming up, after the assassination of a Russian general and fresh US-Russia talks,
we look at whether a Ukraine ceasefire is finally within reach and at what price.
We'll have a roundup of the front pages and then Monocle's fashion director will tell us how customers may be reassessing the value of luxury.
Plus, after Venezuela held crucial local votes yesterday,
we analyze the implications for Maduro's grip on power and the divided opposition's chances.
Then...
We haven't built an industrial sector to cope with the increase in population,
which forces us to be overly dependent on the rest of the world.
We'll look ahead to the urban issues at stake in Canada's upcoming election.
