Beware Bankers Bearing Gifts: Is Debt Good? | Anatole Kaletsky, Stephen King, Laura Bear - a podcast by IAI

The world is awash with debt. Economists argue it is essential to growth and that repayment is a legal and moral obligation.

Is it a trap that maintains wealth and poverty, or a gift that enables growth?
Capitalism 4.0 author Anatole Kaletsky, Senior Economic Adviser at HSBC Stephen King and LSE anthropologist Laura Bear dispute morality and money.
