For this special edition of Macro Matters, Stefan Ingves joins us in Switzerland during the BIS Innovation Summit to continue the conversation on future-proofing central banks amid a rapidly changing global financial landscape. Central banks face mounting pressures—from persistent inflation and political scrutiny to diverging policy paths around the world. At the same time, financial innovation is reshaping money and payments faster than regulators can respond. Stefan explores how central banks can navigate these challenges while maintaining independence, ensuring stability, and fostering global cooperation.
Stefan Ingves spent 17 years as Governor of the Sveriges Riksbank, Sweden's central bank. Previously, he was chairman of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and chairman of the Banking and Risk Management Committee at the BIS.
