Reuters today announced the launch of the 'Econ World' podcast, a weekly deep dive into the fundamental principles of economics. Hosted by veteran financial journalist Carmel Crimmins, the podcast picks apart the key concepts and ideas driving the biggest economic news around the world. Crimmins is also launching a newsletter, which taps Reuters deep bench of economic journalists to deliver a snapshot of the most important news and analysis straight to your inbox.

'Econ World' will be available on Wednesdays and will feature Reuters correspondents and outside experts in meaningful economic conversations. It will also feature dispatches from the ground that show how an economic development is playing out in the real world.

"'Econ World' goes beyond buzz words and technical terms to pick apart the economic principles and ideas driving the biggest news around the world," said Crimmins. "With the new podcast and newsletter, we aim to make economics approachable, whether you're a wonk or a business professional looking to understand how global economic issues will impact your world."
