Biography

James G. Rickards is an American lawyer, investment banker, media commentator, author, and speaker. Born on September 29, 1951, he writes about finance and precious metals and lives in Connecticut. His books include Currency Wars: The Making of the Next Global Crisis, published in 2011, and The Death of Money, published in 2014.

In The Death of Money, Rickards examines threats to the international monetary system and the dollar’s role as the global reserve currency. He argues that another monetary collapse is approaching and explores risks including financial warfare, deflation, and hyperinflation. The book connects these concerns to U.S. political gridlock and efforts by other countries to challenge American monetary dominance.
