Business Editor of The Spectator, Martin Vander Weyer has been confirmed as the guest speaker for the next AM Executive Breakfast Club, which will be held at Simpson's in the Strand in London on January 25.

The Spectator is the world’s oldest weekly current affairs magazine. Vander Weyer is also a regular contributor to the Daily Telegraph, Mail on Sunday and other national publications.

Before turning his hand to journalism, he spent 15 years as an investment banker in London, Brussels and the Far East - including a spell in Malaysia privatising an airline.

A highly experienced commentator rather than a technical economist, Martin agrees that a shift of resources from the bloated public sector to a more responsive private sector should bear fruit. But he also believes there are many in the City who should examine their consciences.
