"The state must set the framework for the markets to function (...) but in the long run, innovation needs a competitive private sector". - Alessandro Magnoli Bocchi

"The future is not a straight-line-projection of the past. Yet, most people - even scientists - think in linear, cause-effect patterns. The real world works differently: events follow discontinuous random walks, not predictable trends. At best, we can only assess the ‘likelihood of forthcoming events’. A rule-based approach is often misleading; to forecast future developments, we need probabilistic - rather than deterministic – thinking".

"In an era of complexity, quantum thinking is needed – particularly in central banking".

"Change is needed. In the absence of bold decisions, rising inequality will foster populism and nationalism, putting democracy at risk".
