Bretton Woods II – For the Biosphere

December 8, 2009

Whereas Bretton Woods (1) was tasked with rebuilding a war torn world, a new Financial Doctrine is needed to rebuild a war torn Biosphere. Economics as a discipline is based on the fundamental effects of selfishness and Bretton Woods demonstrated that we could in fact define “self” in terms of including the preservation of others.

The New Reverse World Order

September 9, 2009

If someone can track your spending, they can predict your behavior. It is also true that if someone can track your behavior, they predict your spending. The next economic paradigm is simply a higher order of the same. If someone knows your “Knowledge Inventory” they can predict how you will manage changing conditions – that is, how you will innovate.

Collateralized Innovation Obligations

June 9, 2009

The underlying asset that supports both the Collateralized Debt Obligation and the Collateralized Innovation Obligation is a person and their ideas; one is an asset and the other is a liability.
