British Thought LeadersSusie Violet Ward raises the alarm bells about CBDCs and government plans to control digital moneyNTD's Lee Hall sits down with Susie Violet Ward, a journalist, author and financial analyst. Susie raises alarm bells about a new centrally-controlled digital currency that the British government aims to introduce - to replace money.
Similar plans are being considered by the Federal Reserve and central banks all over the world. This central bank digital currency or CBDC would completely change the control people have over their own money and yet it’s getting very little attention in the media – or from the public.
