About Carol Baker

A senior business journalist, media executive, and international policy analyst specialising in macroeconomics, global finance, and international business. Currently serving as Editor-in-Chief across three prominent journals spanning finance, technology, property, and lifestyle, I direct the editorial strategy at the critical intersection of market innovation, commercial asset classes, and global macroeconomic policy. Heavily engaged in the international policy sphere, I regularly collaborate with leading global think tanks to bridge the gap between complex economic theory, geopolitical shifts, and real-world business impacts. My academic and industrial influence is further reflected by my position on the International Editorial Board of several leading publications.

A trusted advisor to both the public and private sectors, I regularly undertake specialist research work for government departments and author high-impact SME Barometers, Whitepapers, and strategic thought leadership pieces for some of the world's premier organizations. Additionally, my work encompasses macroeconomic resilience and digital risk, contributing to the cybersecurity thought-leadership forum at The Security Awareness Special Interest Group (SASIG). Alongside these roles, I author advanced training courses for global executives via premier online platforms, translating complex economic insights into actionable corporate strategy.

Grounded in a distinguished literary career, I have been an active member of the Brentwood Writers' Circle for over 35 years and a member of the Society of Women Writers and Journalists (SWWJ). My enduring contributions to the literary community are notably featured in the book "The Woman Writer - the History of the Society of Women Writers and Journalists" by the renowned historian and archivist, Sylvia Kent. As a published author of three books myself – focusing on financial technology applications, cross-border commercial protections, and international trade mechanisms – my analytical foundation is rooted in macro-liquidity frameworks, leverage dynamics, and cross-border commercial law.

By combining deep media and literary leadership, authoritative authorship, government-level research, and executive education, I deliver strategic analysis on the structural forces driving international business and global economic stability.
