Former BIS Chief Economist Reveals Why Central Banks Trapped Themselves | William White

from Macroscopic Podcast · host GoldRepublic

William White, former Chief Economist at the BIS, returns for a candid conversation on the breaking points of the global monetary system. We discuss the regime change underway at the Fed, why financial repression is already here, the biggest energy shock the world has ever known, and the transatlantic battle over stablecoins versus the digital euro. Bill explains why "banks create money out of nothing," whether AI is the next great malinvestment, what the Mar-a-Lago Plan means for the dollar, and why he believes the endgame ends "not with a bang but a whimper." 📲 Download the GoldRepublic app: - Google Play: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goldrepublic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - Apple Store: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/goldrepublic/id475643876⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🟠 Buy and store physical allocated gold, silver and platinum. 👉 Open an account: ⁠https://bit.ly/38stf7p ⁠ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ The views and opinions expressed in this program are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of any entities they represent.
