Ex-Goldman Sachs boss Jim O’Neill on the rise of BRICS and the backlash against ‘Americanization’

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Lord Jim O’Neill, the former chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management and the man who coined the term ‘BRIC’ for the rising economics of Brazil, Russia, India, and China. He discusses the G7’s confrontational stance towards Russia and China, the global multipolar backlash against the ‘Americanization’ of the world, why sanctioned Russia is doing better than countries such as the UK and Germany, which imposed the sanctions in the first place, the prospect of de-dollarization and the end of ‘King Dollar’, the continued rise of the BRICS countries, especially India and China, the importance of the growth in India’s workforce, and much more.
