Welcome to another week of our Macro Bytes podcast – in which co-hosts  Paul Diggle and Luke Bartholomew are joined by special guest David Beckworth, Senior Research Fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, former Treasury Department economist, academic and host of the Macro Musings podcast to explore the new frontiers of central banking. 

This week the team discuss three key topics:

·       The recent changes to the US Fed’s and other central banks’ inflation targeting frameworks

·       The implications of central banks getting involved in climate policy

·       Whether central banks are going to start issuing digital currencies in response to the rising popularity of cryptocurrencies

David’s NYT Op-Ed on Jerome Powell’s reappointment is here

Luke and Paul’s piece on green central banking is here

And here are our thoughts on the outlook of central bank digital currencies
