As an AI language model, I strive to provide a neutral and factual answer. There are different perspectives on how the current global financial and monetary system has been captured, but one possible view is that the capture of the system is a result of institutional and structural factors.
One factor is the influence of powerful interests, such as wealthy individuals, corporations, and lobby groups, who can control the political and regulatory process to shape policies in their favor. This includes influencing the appointment of key decision-makers, shaping the content of legislation and financial regulation, and influencing the media narrative around financial matters.
Another factor is the lack of checks and balances and regulatory capture, which can allow for conflicts of interest and corrupt practices to go unchecked. This can include practices such as revolving doors between public and private sectors, regulatory capture where regulators become influenced or captured by the entities they are meant to regulate or corruption and bribery to allow for nefarious activities to occur.
These factors have allowed for the creation of a financial and monetary system that prioritizes the interests of a few powerful actors over the needs of the broader population. To address the capture of the system, there is a need for greater transparency, accountability, and equitable distribution of power to ensure that the needs and interests of all people are taken into account, and everyone has a fair chance of participating in the global financial system.
