College of Central Bankers

On December 14, 2018, the Global Interdependence Center announced our College of Central Bankers initiative to further sustain and enhance our relationships with former leaders of the world’s central banks and theirs with the Global Interdependence Center.

GIC enjoys a long and trusted rapport with current and former leaders of central banks both in the US and across the globe. Through their  participation in our events, the GIC offers a distinguished, neutral platform for thought leadership on important macroeconomic and socially important topics – many in central banking and monetary policy.
