Klappentext
Zusammenfassung:In the context of the current global financial crisis, where central banks have taken a key role in preserving systemic stability, this book offers a comprehensive review of the literature, proposes new indices and calculates new measures of the three pillars of central bank governance, which are afterwards applied to global central banks. It argues that, while it may not always be desirable for the central bank to supervise financial institutions, there is a strong case for all central banks not to overlook financial stability issues.--Publisher's description
