The Ascent of Money

Series 1 | Episode 6 | Chimerica

Watch this episode now on 4oD A neon sign

Since the 1990s, once risky markets in Asia, Latin America and eastern Europe have become better investments than the UK or US stock market.

The explanation is the rise of 'Chimerica' - the economic marriage of China and the United States. But does it make sense for poor Chinese savers to lend to rich American spenders?
