Part of The Elgar Series on Central Banking and Monetary Policy, this book explores challenges surrounding central banking today. It goes beyond the immediate concerns with monetary policy and focuses instead on the concept of central banking more generally.

Chapter authors explore emerging fields of central bank?s actions, discussing, for instance, how monetary policy can affect income distribution, how it has differentiated impacts according to gender, how it can help to deal with climate change, and how it can promote financial stability and structural change.

Policy makers, academics and the financial press will all benefit from the insight in The Future of Central Banking.

?Central banking is about the provision of the means of payment, and payment is, whether we like it or not, at the core of the organisation of modern society. Therefore it should not come as a surprise that central banking will have to evolve with society and has to take up its ever changing challenges. The authors of this unique book are thought leaders in the various fields in which central banking has to react or can lead change of the economy and society. For central bankers the book is a rich source of inspiration for the coming years.?
