Out of step with everyone else

Global Finance magazine has selected the "10 Best Central Bankers in the World" through a grading based on success in controlling inflation, fostering growth, managing interest rates and ability to stand up to political pressure and yet influence governme

 

The top 10 sadly do not include Thailand, but gives honour to Canada, Australia, Israel, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, Mexico, Chile, Russia and Nigeria.
It is a reminder that political interference in the work of a central bank is not viewed kindly in the international world.
