Abstract

Unlike my distinguished fellow panelists, I am not the head of a central bank. So I take my marching orders from the conference organizers. In this case, they asked me to ruminate on the extent to which central banks? independence and credibility have been affected by their actions during the crisis. So that's what I'll do.
