I will, however, resist the temptation to speak about “regulatory and fiscal policy aspects of the change of course in energy policy”. Fascinating though this subject may be, giving a qualified lecture on this topic might ask a little too much of the central banker standing before you.
And after all, it is the Bundesbank itself that regularly warns against too much being asked of central banks. These warnings normally centre around central bankers’ traditional fears about an excessively close relationship between monetary policy and fiscal policy.
