The Central Bank As Crisis Manager | Dr. Patrick Honohan, former Central Bank of Ireland Governor, on Crisis Management, Macroeconomic Shocks, & Tariffs

Dr. Patrick Honohan, honorary professor of economics at Trinity College Dublin and nonresident senior fellow Peterson Institute for International Economics, joins Monetary Matters to share lessons from his latest book, “The Central Bank as Crisis Manager.” Looking at financial and macroeconomic crises from countries ranging from Iceland, Switzerland, and the U.S., to his native Ireland (where he was the governor of its Central Bank from 2009 to 2015), Honohan concludes that central banks must prepare to fight and manage crises in addition to their ordinary mandate of price stability (and, in the case of the Fed, maximum employment). Recorded on February 5, 2025.

Wilcox shares his findings from his new book, “The China Business Conundrum: Ensure That "Win-Win" Doesn't Mean Western Companies Lose Twice,” in which he describes in detail how the Chinese wing of Silicon Valley Bank (“Shanghai SVB”) was serially hampered and eventually taken over by Chinese bankers acting in concert with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Recorded on February 11, 2025.
