BRICS Building "Completely New Structure": Simon Hunt, Mike Green, Taggart On Threats To US Hegemony

At the recent BRICS summit in Kazan, Russian President Vladimir Putin unveiled the first ever physical currency note. While apparently just a mock-up made by an enthusiastic Russian bureaucrat, it sparked debate around the alliance’s plans for a future currency to rival the U.S. dollar.

“The dollar remains the most important tool in global finance but using it as a political weapon undermines trust in the currency,” Putin remarked. “If they block us, we’ll find alternatives.”

To better understand the shifting trends, we’ve gathered two exceptional yet oppositional macro minds — Simon Hunt of Strategic Services and Michael Green of Simplify Asset Management — to flesh out what will likely occur in the latter half of the decade.
