In our interconnected world, cooperation between central banks and coordination of monetary policy is essential to success in the global economy. Yet, in spite of the benefits, monetary policy coordination between banks is not always guaranteed. Why? Although coordination by the world's central banks produces markedly better results than if those banks go their own ways,central bankers may disagree about the importance of various monetary objectives, the actions needed to attain them, and, especially, the timing of corrective action. But the very key to coordination is for banks to simultaneously implement policy to lessen the risks of inflation, recession, changes in exchange rates, or other unfortunate results that can cause much harm to individuals and nations alike.
