Richard Andreas Werner (born 5 January 1967) is a German banking and development economist who is a university professor at De Montfort University. He has proposed the "Quantity Theory of Credit", or "Quantity Theory of Disaggregated Credit", which disaggregates credit creation used for the real economy (GDP transactions) on the one hand, and financial transactions on the other hand.
