Conclusion

In: Building Credible Central Banks

Abstract

Of key importance to the effective operation of the Central Bank of the Congo within the government are: a well-designed policy mandate; a high degree of formal instrument independence; complementary informal relationships to ensure appropriate coordination without undermining instrument independence; a disciplined, regular process of legislative oversight; and a high degree of transparency and disclosure. The result would be a good trade-off among government-mandated objectives, instrument independence, flexibility, and accountability. But this very same trade-off may leave open opportunities for political interference and continuing energy and focus will be required – both inside the Central Bank of the Congo and within the rest of government – to sustain the operational autonomy and independence of the central bank.
