In this episode, Robert talks about Wicksellian credit money creation. Knut Wicksell was one of the earliest financial practitioners to observe that bank loans create bank deposits, rather than the other way around. This is known as the endogenous money view. Robert talks more about Wicksell in these episodes:

Patricia & Christian talk to Stuart Medina Miltimore, economist and founder of the Spanish advocacy group Red MMT about his chapter (co-written with Bill Mitchell) in the major new academic collaboration "Modern Monetary Theory - Key Insights, Leading Thinkers", which lays out how the euro has driven austerity and the depoliticisation of European democracies.

Whether they know it or not, currency union members (and prospective members) have a choice: status quo, reform, or exit? Understanding modern money - as a policy tool designed to mobilise resources, rather than as an inert medium of exchange - is key to understanding the human stakes of that choice.
