Scotland, U.K. Seen Better Off With Shared Pound

Aug. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Scotland and the U.K. would both be better off with a shared pound in the event that Scotland votes for independence next month, according to James Mirrlees, Nobel Prize-winning emeritus professor of political economy at Cambridge University. Mirrlees, a Scot who is a member of a panel advising Scotland's nationalist government on the finances of independence, is speaking in an interview from Lindau, Germany with Anna Edwards on Bloomberg Television's "The Pulse."
