Daniel Lacalle on CBDCs

Jeffrey Peel interviews Daniel Lacalle, the free market economist

In advance of the Together Talks event in London on Monday evening (28th March) - focusing on Digital IDs and Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) - I wanted to get some perspectives from Daniel Lacalle, the free market economist. Daniel is Chief Economist at Tressis Gestion and is a hugely in-demand commentator on economics and global geopolitics.

In this interview Daniel talks about the ballooning money-printing being undertaken by the central banks - especially the Fed - and the potential emergence of central bank digital currencies.

(Apologies for the slightly off voice sync issues on the interview - the interview was conducted via video conference (Daniel is based in Madrid)).

If you’d like to watch the panel discussion featuring myself, Maajid Nawaz, Laura Dodsworth, Tom Salmon, and James Heartfield, you can watch live on YouTube from 7:30pm on Monday evening. Here’s the link you need (below).
