Search for Growth: Central Banks in Uncharted Territory

In their ongoing response to the aftershocks of the global financial crisis, central banks are abandoning the narrow role they traditionally played in economic affairs. In developed economies particularly, they have greatly expanded their direct participation in financial markets, working to sway investor sentiment and restore confidence. Much of this shift has been reluctant, and arguably it is spurred by lack of government action to stimulate the global economy or correct structural imbalances. But many observers expect the changes to be permanent. The Economist Intelligence Unit takes a closer look at the evolving role of central banks. This paper is part of the BNY Mellon-sponsored Search for Growth series.
