About the Institutional Alignment Project: The College of Central Bankers is actively organizing a multiyear global discussion called the Institutional Alignment Project. This Project is centered around the overarching question of whether national and international policymaking institutions are sufficiently equipped to address the impacts of high debt levels, digital currencies, unsupervised algorithmic trading, inequality, climate change, and changing demographics. This Project will also address whether long-standing international accords need to be modified and/or whether new global agreements are necessary. Working collaboratively, the CCB and its community will be bringing this discussion and other activities to the global stage, beginning with a series of virtual events.
About the College of Central Bankers: The Global Interdependence Center’s College of Central Bankers provides a platform for former leaders of the world’s central banks and similar institutions to share their unique combination of hands on experience and continued thought leadership on important global issues facing economies and effecting the quality of life.
