Central banks are in the course of reining in inflation, after the surge due to COVID-19 and then the worst energy crisis since the 1970s. This unprecedented series of events obviously raised questions, debates and some criticism; so does a more volatile future, taking a forward-looking approach.

François Villeroy de Galhau, Governor of the Banque de France and member of the European Central Bank’s Governing Council, will give a keynote speech (followed by a Q&A), around three questions for monetary policy.

In his talk, he will offer his view on how central banks stand ready to greater volatility and supply shocks, discuss the implications for the inflation objective and explore how central banks can help with regard to structural policies.
