Closing In closing Ladies and Gentlemen, recognising truly great performances by our fellow Fijians (including adopted Fijians) on our banknotes and coins is the highest recognition we at the Reserve Bank can give. We were privileged to have recognised Iliesa Delana in 2012 and now we are just as privileged to recognise Ben Ryan, Osea Kolinisau and our magnificent rugby sevens Olympians.
With this in mind, I think it was among others wise to keep the Bank’s Council of Regency in existence, even if it has finally lost all monetary power. It offers an irreplaceable opportunity for dialogue between the directors of the central bank and the experts representing the main spheres of Belgian society.
