So to deliver on our mandate of price stability, we cannot turn a blind eye to financial stability. As regards monetary policy, we will work to maintain price stability. As regards financial stability, we will continue to cooperate with European and national institutions to work towards a stable financial system. And as regards banking supervision, we will work to make banks safer and sounder.
I wish I could tell you it is always easy to neatly separate these worlds. It is not. But I am confident that all the bright, competent, and committed Europeans working for EU and national institutions can make it happen. Thank you for your attention. 1 Ugolini, S., The Evolution of Central Banking: Theory and History, Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2017.
