A range of prominent academic, central-bank and other policy economists

McCauley from the Bank for International Settlements' Asian and
Pacific Office, Hong Kong; John Williamson from the Institute for
International Economics, Washington, DC; Charles Wyplosz from the
Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva; and Andrew
Coleman from the University of Michigan. Discussants included the
governor of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, economists from two
other central banks, and academics from Australia, Japan and the
