Many critics claim that the problem with economics is that it has no theory of value. From early economists, such as Smith, Ricardo and Marx, to later economists, pinning value to economics has proved disputatious. In turn, problems with understanding value reverberate to problems with money, problems with the long term and problems with sustainability.

This panel discussion at this Long Finance conference will examine the question of "The Pros and Cons or Stable Monetary Value"?
The panellists are (from left to right):
 - Professor Michael Mainelli
 - Ben Dyson
 - Professor Charles Goodhart
 - Marusa Freire
