Monetary politics since the change of regime: looking back and looking forward

On 30th of November the Hungarian LSE Alumni Association teamed up with the Common Sense Society and the Hungarian Fulbright Association to organise a debate between two former Hungarian Central Bank Governors. Dr György Surányi and Dr Péter Ákos Bod discussed a number of topics, including the various responsiblilities and strategies of the Central Bank in different times, its base rate policy or the risk and consequences of deflation. The active Q&A session at the end of the event fuelled the stimulating discussion. Many thanks to our partner organisations as well as to ELTE University for making this debate possible.
