The 100 Trillion Dollar Wealth Transfer

When Boomers Hand Over to Gen Z, and How it Will Change Capitalism Ken Costa

An insider's look into how Generation Z's focus on ethics, climate change and purpose will change capitalism forever.

In the next ten years there will be an unprecedented wealth transfer from the socalled ‘baby boomer’ generation to the young. Never before will so much money – in housing, land, stocks and cash – be shifted so suddenly from one generation to the next, and never before does the next generation feel so differently about the future of the planet and of capitalism. Ken Costa shows how environmental concerns and anxiety about equality and diversity are more than mere slogans; instead they are driving the future of the markets.

For readers of Rebecca Henderson’s Reimagining Capitalism, and Rutger Bregman’s Utopia for Realists, this is what the future of capitalism looks like, how our current systems may be upended, and how boomers must work with the invigorating and inspiring young, who see their mission not just to increase value for shareholders, but to save the planet from humanity’s disastrous last 40 years.

Ken Costa is former chairman of three major global investment institutions, including UBS Investment Bank, and he currently runs a $20 billion investment fund focused on millennials. Ken is also Emeritus Professor of Commerce at Gresham College, the author of four books and contributor to the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, The Times, the Telegraph, and the BBC.

Age of Hope

Labour, 1945 and the Birth of Modern Britain

Richard Toye

A comprehensive history of the Labour party from one of the brightest young historians of 20th century Britain.

2024 marks the centenary of the first Labour government under Ramsay MacDonald. What legacy of the past have they left behind? How far has each Labour administration influenced succeeding administrations? And was the Attlee government of 1945 really the golden period of Labour power?

Professor Richard Toye explores Labour’s exercise of power as a continuum, setting Attlee’s administration in long­term historical context between the first Labour Government of 1924 and the current party under Keir Starmer.

Covering Labour's history all the way up to the present, Age of Hope is an incisive, informative look at a political party that has been fundamental in shaping modern Britain and will be equally instrumental in its future.
