Matt Riley: The Financial Iron Curtain Going Up Between BRICS and the G7

Tom welcomes retired naval officer Matt Riley to the show. Matt shares his background in economics and global affairs and expresses his interest in the developing BRICS system. They discuss the BRICS alliance's diplomacy, economic cooperation, and representation goals. Matt explains nBRIDGE, a decentralized settlement system, with gold acting as a stable store of value for settling trade imbalances.

Matt explains the use of gold in net settlement currencies and direct payment methods for energy transactions between BRICS Nations. The bilateral central bank and exchange agreements create a decentralized system, with Dubai being the second-largest gold trading hub due to its diplomatic neutrality.
