b'Today\\u2019s special guest is a true expert in global money. Robert McCauley\\u2019s life work on the international monetary system is authoritative and seminal, and he joins Jack Farley and Joseph Wang to answer questions such as:\\n- how do Eurodollars actually work?\\n- is the rest of the world long or short dollars? (the answer may surprise you)\\n- how does the level of the dollar mechanically impact offshore dollar credit?\\nMcCauley confirms many rumors about Eurodollars (offshore dollars), as well as debunks several of their myths. He shares his view on the dollar\\u2019s role in the future of global money, and he details the astronomically large sums in the FX swap market used to hedge dollar exposure. McCauley also asks Joseph Wang a question about the fall of LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) and the rise of SOFR (secured overnight financing rate).
