The financial crisis destroyed the consensus – at least among central bankers in the West – about how best to do central banking.
The Future of Central Banking, a new book from Central Banking Publications, draws on leading industry experts to describe and analyse the new world facing central bankers.

'A New Currency for Iraq' tells the story of the successful introduction of the new currency and the simultaneous stabilisation of the exchange rate in the face of the insurgency. It is a tale of the Coalition and the Iraqi authorities working together to introduce the new Iraqi dinar. It is also a demonstration that good central banking is possible even in the most challenging circumstances, and in a way that makes a difference to millions of ordinary people. The book will appeal to a wide range of readers, from those interested in Iraq's transition to those considering a currency exchange in other countries.

The credit crash which began in August 2007 and turned into the most serious financial crisis in living memory has thrust the design and the conduct of financial oversight, regulation and supervision under detailed worldwide scrutiny.
As markets suffered unprecedented meltdowns and household names went bust, central bankers and supervisors were left questioning the models of financial regulation that had been built up over the last decade and a half.
This new book, Towards a New Framework for Financial Stability, presents the first collection of practitioner responses to the first great financial crisis of the 21st century.
