Welcome!

Without sharing…

I am less interested in letting people know what I think than in engaging in discussions with anybody who feels as attached to the topics I deal with in here as I do.

In my professional career, in Central Banks and Investment Banks I always complain how being too self-centered is a unforgivable loss of potential, as the best ideas come from exchange, discussion and, sometimes, dissent.

The “chronicles” you will find in this website are therefore not statements, rather invitations to think, share and debate to reach together a full understanding of a problem, paving the way for solutions.

Please subscribe in order to receive an email every time I add a new chronicle.
