Product Information
Winner of the 2023 Hayek Book Prize Longlisted for the 2022 Financial Times BusinessBook of the Year Award A comprehensive and profoundly relevant history of interest from one of the world's leading financial writers, The Price of Time explains our current global financial position and how we got here In the beginning was the loan, and the loan carried interest. For at least five millennia people have been borrowing and lending at interest. The practice wasn't always popular--in the ancient world, usury was generally viewed as exploitative, a potential path to debt bondage and slavery. Yet as capitalism became established from the late Middle Ages onwards, denunciations of interest were tempered because interest was a necessary reward for lenders to part with their capital. And interest performs many other vital functions: it encourages people to save; enables them to place a value on precious assets, such as houses and all manner of financial securities; and allows us to price risk. All economic and financial activities take place across time. Interest is often described as the "price of money," but it is better called the "price of time:" time is scarce, time has value, interest is the time value of money. Over the first two decades of the twenty-first century, interest rates have sunk lower than ever before. Easy money after the global financial crisis in 2007/2008 has produced several ill effects, including the appearance of multiple asset price bubbles, a reduction in productivity growth, discouraging savings and exacerbating inequality, and forcing yield starved investors to take on excessive risk. The financial world now finds itself caught between a rock and a hard place, and Edward Chancellor is here to tell us why. In this enriching volume, Chancellor explores the history of interest and its essential function in determining how capital is allocated and priced.

Reviews
Praise for The Price of Time : "Interest rates haven't simply fallen--they were pushed. And by their pushing, the world's central banks have constructed the hall of mirrors in which every investor has become, of necessity, a speculator. So argues Edward Chancellor in this brilliant chronicle of the most important prices in capitalism. You must read it. It is a masterpiece of history, analysis--and properly understated outrage." --James Grant, editor of Grant's Interest Rate Observer "I wish The Price of Time were the book that I had written. I am reminded of Keynes's letter to Hayek after reading The Road to Serfdom where he said 'In my opinion it is a grand book. We all have the greatest reason to be thankful to you for saying so well what needs so much to be said. I find myself in agreement with virtually the whole of it, and not only in agreement but in a deeply moved agreement.'" --William White, former Chief Economist, Bank for International Settlements "Is it possible to write a highly engaging history of the world going back to Hammurabi, unfolding along the way a bitingly comprehensive explanation for its problems today, all told through a single character? Apparently yes. Edward Chancellor has done it, an achievement all the more notable since his drama is built around a character so unheroic on its surface: his 'price of time' is interest rates. This is a timely, vitally important and hugely readable book." --Ruchir Sharma, Chairman, Rockefeller International and New York Times- bestselling author "Edward Chancellor has produced not just a brilliant explainer of the value of money and time but a hugely engaging history of the greatest problem confronting markets today. The Price of Time is a must read--a copy should be on the desk of everyone who has anything to do with financial markets or wondered why things work as they do." --Merryn Somerset Webb, Editor-in-Chief, MoneyWeek "Chancellor has done the nearly impossible: He has made apotentially dreary topic--interest rates--into a witty, philosophical andhighly entertaining story crammed with historical anecdotes starting with theBabylonians and ending yesterday." -- Jeremy Grantham, Founder and Chief Investment Strategist,GMO LLC. "I'm not sure I've ever read a book on finance where Ihave agreed with all of it but that time has now come." --Russell Napier, investment strategist and author of TheAnatomy of the Bear Praise for Edward Chancellor "Entertaining, useful, admirable . . . Chancellor seems to have read everything." -- New York Times Book Review , on Devil Take the Hindmost "[Edward Chancellor is] one of the great financial writers of our era." -- Financial Analysts Journal , on Capital Account, Praise for The Price of Time : "Interest rates haven't simply fallen--they were pushed.

This is a timely, vitally important and hugely readable book." --Ruchir Sharma, Chairman, Rockefeller International and New York Times- bestselling author "Chancellor provides a different, more compelling, and morefrightening explanation of the world's slowing economies: central banks' nowdecades-long love affair with artificially low interest rates . . . One of thebook's joys is its relevance to both political policy and personal finance . . .Chancellor's encyclopedic grasp of economic history shines through on nearlyevery page . . . Besides being a first-rate economic historian, Chancellor isalso a master wordsmith; almost unique among serious finance books, The Priceof Time serves well as bedtime reading." --William J. Bernstein, author of ASplendid Exchange, in Enterprising Investor "Edward Chancellor has produced not just a brilliant explainer of the value of money and time but a hugely engaging history of the greatest problem confronting markets today.
