COMMUNICATION STRATEGY
Core Tenets of the Economic and Political Model of Bretton Woods Research
- A well functioning economy starts with the producer and the exchange of goods and services between fellow producers.
- Risk-taking (and the policies and events that promote it) is a necessary ingredient of growth.
-
Paying attention to the margin (i.e., the unfolding developments in fiscal, monetary, regulatory and geopolitical events) will uncover and direct one to investment opportunities through-out the global economy.
-
Gold is the monetary North Star and remains the best unit of account for valuing currencies. A currency's gold price is the best signal of long-term inflationary or deflationary pressures being transmitted into the respective economy.
- There is an optimal tax rate between 0 and 100% at which the government will incur the maximum amount of revenue without compromising economic growth.
