What’s a central bank supposed to do?

Unhedged

About this episode

Central banks have been around for hundreds of years. But they haven’t always done the same thing. Today on the show, Katie Martin and Rob Armstrong talk to Brendan Greeley, a former FT reporter, about the changing role of the Federal Reserve. Greeley is the author of the forthcoming The Almighty Dollar. Also, they go long internships at XTX and short private credit.
