“Almost without doubt” will the strain in the banking system cause further bank failures this year, says Alasdair Macleod, Head of Research at GoldMoney. The authorities in the West are likely to try to protect the status quo, but it’s not going to work, he forecasts. As the financial system shows more cracks, officials will choose to sacrifice the currency rather than the system. At the same time, more signs show that the BRICS, joined by the Middle East, are going to adopt a currency based on gold.
