Former Chief Economist of National Australia Bank — clear insight on the economy, markets and business outlook
Ivan Colhoun is a former Chief Economist for National Australia Bank and a trusted voice on the Australian economy and financial markets. Across his career he has held senior economist roles with Qantas, ANZ and Deutsche Bank, giving him an unusually broad view of how economic trends play out — from the banking and markets side to the operating realities of one of the country's best-known companies.
That range is what sets Ivan apart. He has watched the economy from inside a major bank, a global investment bank and an airline, and he now advises organisations including CreditorWatch, Marex Financial and Bank of Sydney on economic trends and markets. The result is analysis grounded in how the numbers actually affect businesses, rather than economics for its own sake. He translates complex financial and market dynamics into clear, practical insights that leaders and decision-makers can use.
His presentations on the Australian economy and finance equip organisations with the understanding they need to navigate uncertainty, assess risk and make informed strategic decisions. For board and executive briefings, industry conferences, client events and strategy days — any room that needs a clear read on where the economy and markets are heading — Ivan Colhoun offers the experience of a chief economist and the clarity of someone who has spent a career explaining it.
