This recognition gives me and my team considerable satisfaction as it is the first time in the Bank’s history of nearly 45 years that we are garnering such an award.
It rewards the determination and the consistency with which we have been conducting our policies in an extremely difficult and very uncertain global environment, without giving in to the strident siren calls for quick monetary fixes to give a temporary, but ultimately self-defeating, boost to our exports. Real gains for all Mauritians can only come from productivity increases. And the future?
