Description
The Readback team is taking a quick break. We'll be back with a new episode next week. In the meantime, we've selected one of our favorite episodes to re-release:
Anyone with a savings account is familiar with the impact of low interest rates. The most generous savings accounts in the U.S. barely pay 2%. Bonds aren't a whole lot better. But in Europe and much of the world, interest rates are not just low -- they're actually negative. Matt Klein joins host Alex Eule to explain. First published on October 16, 2019.
