Pulp Francis has died on 228 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: this day after Easter Sunday. The eighty eight year old 229 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 2: Pontiffs being remembered for his calls for a more compassionate 230 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: Catholic Church and for his focus on reducing poverty, as 231 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: in this speech to a joint session of Congress nearly 232 00:11:58,960 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 2: a decade ago. 233 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 5: It can be fulfilled source of prosperity from the area 234 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 5: in which it operates, especially if it is the creation 235 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 5: of jobs, and. 236 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 2: That was Pope Francis in Washington back in twenty fifteen. 237 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 2: This morning, we were joined by Bloomberg News Senior editor 238 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: Bill Ferries. As the world wakes up this morning, Bill 239 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: to this news that Pope Francis has passed. 240 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 14: Good morning, Good morning, Thanks for having me, Navan. 241 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 2: So the Pontiff has, as we say, he has passed away, 242 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: but he is going to be remembered for bringing a 243 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 2: much different dynamic to the Catholic Church, isn't it. 244 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's right. I mean, he was first of all 245 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 14: he was a historic figure just his naming he was. 246 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 14: He's the first pope from the Americas, coming from Argentina. 247 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 14: He was the first Jesuit to hold that position, and 248 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 14: he became pope following the abdication of Pope Benedict the 249 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 14: sixteenth so on all of those really historic nature to 250 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 14: his tenure. And I think in contrast to Pope Benedict, 251 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 14: he really brought kind of an easy going, joyful approach 252 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 14: to the posts that won over a lot of non Catholics. 253 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: Frankly, is it going to be an impression that is 254 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 2: left more permanently? Do you think with the Catholic Church 255 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 2: that kind of aspect that he brought a more joyful approach, 256 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 2: a more compassionate approach. 257 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 14: Well, you know, I think, just like in politics, you have, 258 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 14: the politics of the papacy kind of go from one 259 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 14: direction to the other. Would be very interesting to see 260 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 14: what follows or who follows this pope. There's usually a 261 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 14: conclave that would take place to choose the next pope 262 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 14: within a two to three week period, and really will 263 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 14: that will have some determination on the legacy that this 264 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 14: pope is seen as having. Of course, he inherited some 265 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 14: of the challenges that every pope in the modern era 266 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,079 Speaker 14: has inherited, including the dealing with the allegations of sexual 267 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 14: abuse against a children. He also inherited finance problems that 268 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 14: came with the Vatican Bank, and those are all issues 269 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 14: that will his successor will be seen as having to 270 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 14: deal with. But in terms of the longer term legacy, 271 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 14: I think we're going to need more time to know. 272 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 14: He was the pope for twelve years. He did some things, 273 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 14: showed a compassion. I think that is kind of typical 274 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 14: of the Jesuit order. That we'll have to see whether 275 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 14: that's the approach his successor also decides to embrace. 276 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 2: So you would have to think that, given the illness 277 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 2: that he had suffered over the last several months, and 278 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 2: the health issues that he had had throughout much of 279 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: his papacy, that there has been some groundwork laid for 280 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: name being a successor. How do you expect that to 281 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 2: go in our last thirty seconds or. 282 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 14: So, Well, yeah, he's been he's been very ill for months. 283 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 14: So I think at least some of the speculation about 284 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 14: who might succeed him, where they might come from, what 285 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 14: kind of a person might be the next pope has 286 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 14: been out there, but I think as we saw, Pope 287 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 14: Francis wasn't chosen until the fifth round of voting in 288 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 14: twenty thirteen, and a lot of things happened. He did 289 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 14: not expect to become pope, so perhaps his successor is 290 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 14: also not thinking that he will be chosen. 291 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg day Break, your morning podcast and the 292 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 3: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 293 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 294 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or manywhere else you listen. 295 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 296 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 3: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 297 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 298 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 299 00:15:59,120 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 3: XM Channel one. 300 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 13: Plus. 301 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 2: Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app Now 302 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 303 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
