History
Roubini Global Economics was founded in 2004 by Dr. Nouriel Roubini, former senior adviser to the U.S. Treasury and the International Monetary Fund and a professor at New York University's Stern School of Business, and Camille LeBlanc, a serial entrepreneur in the digital media sector. LeBlanc was the founding CEO and was responsible for building the initial team and seeding the product in 3,000 accounts in the public and private financial sector. The company re-branded itself as Roubini Global Economics in 2010. Following a 2016 merger with 4CAST (the world's leading supplier of online financial analytics), forming 4CAST-RGE, the company has offices in London, New York City and Singapore, with a staff of in-house economists and analysts. In 2018, Roubini Global Economics changed its name to Continuum Economics.
Acquisitions
In July 2012, RGE announced that it had acquired Country Insights. In a press release, Nouriel Roubini said, “We believe our clients will find added value in the combination of Country Insights’ systematic country risk approach and Roubini's macroeconomic strategy analysis”.[1]
