 Central bank - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A central bank, reserve bank or monetary authority, is an entity responsible for the monetary policy of its country or of its group of member states, such as the European Union.
A central bank is usually headed by a Governor, President in the case of the European Central Bank or Chief Executive/Managing Director in the case of Hong Kong Monetary Authority and Monetary Authority of Singapore.
Advocates of central bank independence argue that a central bank which is too susceptible to political direction or pressure may encourage economic cycles ("boom and bust"), as politicians may be tempted to boost economic activity in advance of an election, to the detriment of the long-term health of the economy and the country.

 The Financial Regulator – a sturdy umbrella in our Irish weather?
The Financial Regulator, as it is now known, formally came into being on 1 May 2003 as the single regulator for the Irish financial services sector.
The key driving force behind the establishment of a single regulator for the financial services sector was a determination to put the interests of the consumer firmly at the heart of financial regulation in Ireland.
The Financial Regulator must also be wary of potentially over-burdening both themselves and the industry with the level of regulation that it imposes and the number of issues that it consults on.
