Sam Bowman's comments on the removal of Adam Smith from £20 notes feature in The Daily Mail
Deputy Director Sam Bowman's comments on the Bank of England's decision to replace Adam Smith on £20 notes feature in The Daily Mail:
The change could leave Scotland with only one representative on Bank of England notes, inventor James Watt, who appears on the £50. Sam Bowman, of the think-tank the Adam Smith Institute, said: ‘It’s a great shame that the bank is removing Adam Smith from the £20 notes. ‘Smith is not just the father of economics, he is in many ways the father of the modern industrialised world.’
