Brett Scott is an anthropologist and former financier who has been working on changing the global financial system since the days of Occupy Wall Street. We read his 2013 book The Heretics Guide to Global Finance in the UE reading club (available to £5+ tier Patrons!) and we really enjoyed it, so I thought I’d ask Brett to reflect over a decade later. I also took a look at his newer book, Cloud Money, on the dominance of fintech in the financial world today. We had a wide-ranging discussion about the future of finance.
