On today’s show we’re talking about the euro and its impact on the European economy. To help us cover this incredibly complex and robust topic, we have Dr. Thomas Mayer, who’s the founder and managing director of the Flossbach von Storch Research Institute. Dr. Mayer’s experience in finance is quite impressive. He was formerly the chief economist at Deutsche Bank. He’s worked at Goldman Sachs, and the IMF, and the (Kiel) Institute for the World Economy. So without further delay, here’s our conversation with Dr. Thomas Mayer.
