Armenia’s Radical New Monetary Policy Approach | Governor Martin Galstyan & Armen Nurbekyan
I talked to Armenia's central bank governors Martin Galstyan & Armen Nurbekyan about
(1) how the history of central banking in Armenia led to them adopting a systematic approach to monetary policy, (2) how this then led them to adopt this new scenario based approach, (3) how that differs from what other central banks do, and (3) finally what scenarios the governors are now considering for the future of Armenias economy, an economy that could potentially be one of the most turbulent in the world with its reliance on geopolitical rivals Europe and Russia, while also being faced with armed conflict with its neighbor Azerbaijan, which is being supported by its other neighbor Turkey.
