WHAT PRICE STERLING NOW?

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by PETER OPPENHEIMER
Tutor in Economics at Christ Church, Oxford
1: As Good as Goldf Sterling is not only the means with which Britons buy what they need at home and abroad: it also has an important international function both as a trading currency and as a repository of foreign wealth.

In the first of two talks on the pound, Peter Oppenheimer considers these ad. vantages and disadvantages.
