Yalda Hakim interviews Anthony Scaramucci
Anthony Scaramucci is one of our agency's speakers and one of the most prominent observers of US politics, financial markets and global power shifts.
Anthony Scaramucci talks about democracy, economics and global order
In this exclusive interview, Anthony Scaramucci talks to internationally acclaimed journalist Yalda Hakim about political power, economic misalignments and the vulnerability of the systems we rely on.
Scaramucci, entrepreneur, investor and former White House communications director, shares his experiences from the worlds of politics and finance and provides a pointed assessment of current developments. The focus is on the long-term consequences of political decisions – from tariffs and investment reluctance to the creeping loss of trust in democratic institutions.
Political power and economic responsibility
A central theme is Scaramucci's view of the USA. He warns against authoritarian tendencies, a dangerous concentration of power and strategies that could weaken democratic control mechanisms. At the same time, he makes it clear that political analysis without an economic perspective falls short.
Financial markets, the US dollar and cryptocurrencies
Global financial markets are also a topic of discussion. Anthony Scaramucci describes the decline in value of the US dollar as a hidden burden on broad sections of the population and talks about structural risks to growth and stability. On the subject of cryptocurrencies, he explains why, after initial scepticism, he is now convinced of their long-term potential and why technological upheavals are often only taken seriously at a late stage.
The conversation is an urgent appeal for a sense of responsibility, informed decisions and active engagement at both the political and social levels.
