Challenges for Central Banking


Overview

This volume offers a comprehensive examination of what central banks have done, what they can do, and what they should and should not do.

Reviews

`This volume offers a comprehensive examination of what central banks have done, what they can do and, most importantly, what they should and should not do. The essays provide penetrating analyses of the key issues facing central banks at the dawn of a new century. High on this agenda are the challenges of financial innovations for the supervision and stability of financial institutions and the competition from private e-money sources in the provision of monetary and payment services.' R.S. Kroszner, Professor of Economics, Graduate School of Business, University of Chicago `What should central bankers do in a world where banks are buffeted by competition and technological change? The articles in this book, written in lucid prose by some of the best researchers in the area, reflect the latest thinking on the question. The book is a `must read' for anyone interested in banking and monetary policy.' R. Rajan, J.L. Gidwitz Professor of Finance, Graduate School of Business, University of Chicago `Challenges for Central Banking brings together the contributions of a selected group of economists on key issues in the monetary stability and the financial stability role of central banks. It will be very valuable reading for both central bankers and academics interested in monetary policy and banking regulation and supervision.' R. Repullo, Professor of Economics and Director, CEMFI
