Is There a New Normal for Inflation?
India recovered from the global financial crisis ahead of most other countries, but inflation too caught up with us sooner than elsewhere. As measured by the wholesale price index (WPI), inflation went marginally into negative territory for a few months into the crisis in 2009 and started rising sharply thereafter, clocking a peak rate of 10.9 per cent in April 20102. Average WPI inflation was 9.6 per cent in fiscal year 2010/11, 8.9 per cent in 2011/12 and 7.5 per ce

The 15th C. D. Deshmukh Memorial Lecture on "A Revolution in Monetary Policy : Lessons in the Wake of the Global Financial Crisis" delivered by Joseph E. Stiglitz at Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai on January 3, 2013
It is a real pleasure for me to be able to deliver this lecture in memory of the Reserve Bank of India's first Indian Governor, who set an example and a tradition which has resulted in the Reserve Bank of India being viewed as one of the exemplars of central banks around the world. As I shall comment later, one could not help but notice this in the aftermath of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis—which to a very large extent was brought about by failures of central banks

Honourable Professor Joseph Stiglitz, Governor Dr. Subbarao, distinguished guests and colleagues from the Reserve Bank. Central banks have come under severe intellectual scrutiny ever since the global crisis, even as they have crossed all conventional barriers in responding to the crisis. Monetary policy was partly blamed for the genesis of the crisis, and it continues to be blamed for ineffectiveness in giving us a durable recovery. We need nothing short of a revolut

The Importance of Inflation Expectations
‘‘Each possesses within himself two antagonistic and foolish counsellors, whom we call by the names of pleasure and pain…besides these two, each man possesses opinions about the future, which go by the general name of ‘expectations’; and of these, that which precedes pain bears the special name of ‘fear’, and that which precedes pleasure the special name of ‘confidence’.” Plato, 360 BC I thank Dr. Sesha Iyer and Dr. Pattnaik for the invitation to address this young au

We have had one and half days of intellectually stimulating discussions on a range of critical central banking issues revolving around the New Trilemma that has been defined by this Conference.
