"If there is a macroeconomic lesson the pandemic has taught us, it is that central banks can do a lot"
Daniela Gabor is a Professor of Economics and Macro-Finance at the University of the West of England. She has been published in The Guardian, Financial Times and Jacobin and has been heavily critical of the way central banks and finance operate in our economies. Her work gets to the fundamentals of central banks and exposes how activities we usually assume are apolitical are in fact choices we don't have to make.
She was invited as an expert witness to the European Parliament's hearing on the Capital Markets Union and is working on an upcoming book on the Wall Street Consensus.
