Hitotsubashi - IMF Executive Seminar on Monetary Policy Challenges held November 1-2

 

APPP and International Monetary Fund's Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (OAP) jointly hosted an Executive Seminar for senior policymakers from Asia, focusing on the policy challenges for monetary policy. The seminar considered the issues that have emerged in the wake of the global financial crisis, including crisis response, the reevaluation of inflation targeting framework, and the role of monetary policy in ensuring financial stability. Lectures and discussions were provided by senior staff of the IMF and the Bank of Japan, the Former Governor of the Bank of Thailand as well as the APPP faculty. A Discussion Session with the Governor of the Bank of Japan was also held. 
The highly successful Seminar was attended by 14 overseas participants from 9 countries representing 12 institutions, including three Central Bank Deputy Governors, a Commissioner of Financial Services Commission and a President of Deposit Insurance Corporation. Senior officials from the Bank of Japan, the Japanese Ministry of Finance, and representatives from two foreign central bank representative offices in Tokyo also participated in the Seminar.
