Olivier Fines, CFA, and Mark Higgins, CFA: The Role of the U.S. Dollar as a Global Reserve Currency
Description
In this episode, Mike welcomes Olivier Fines, CFA, Head of Advocacy and Capital Markets Policy Research for EMEA at CFA Institute, and Mark Higgins, CFA, author of "Investing in U.S. Financial History." The discussion centers around the findings of a recent CFA Institute Research and Policy Center report titled "The Dollar's Exorbitant Privilege," which Olivier co-authored. Olivier shared insights from the survey report, and Mark provided a historical perspective on reserve currencies and events that have triggered shifts away from dominant currencies in the past. This engaging conversation provides valuable insights into the complexities of US debt, the role of the dollar, and the historical context that shapes our current financial system.
