The Central Banking app provides informed global coverage, comment and analysis for the central banking community. The Central Banking app contains news stories, features, interviews and opinion that cover the entire breadth of the central banking industry. From monetary policy, to financial stability, economics, governance, reserve management and currency, articles are sourced from daily news and Central Banking journal. Central Banking is firmly established as the industry’s leading information resource – it delivers unrivalled coverage of the market, with in-depth analysis of all the latest industry news. Its reputation is such that Central Banking has access to the leading players in the market – Central Banking speaks to them in order to gather their thoughts and opinions on the latest hot topics, and this in turn allows Central Banking to produce award-winning journalism with a level of insight that you simply cannot find anywhere else. The financial crisis has fundamentally and irrevocably shifted the political and economic landscape – forcing central bankers, regulators and the industry at large to rethink the way financial markets work. Central Banking keeps its readers informed about what central bankers and regulators are thinking about markets, and how policy should influence them. Like the highly successful CentralBanking.com website, the Live app features breaking news and independent commentary updates throughout the day. The app also gives users the ability to view articles offline, save and share favourite stories, and customise the type of content received. The easy-to-navigate app allows subscribers to access all content at a time and place that suits as well as ensuring access to information as soon as it’s published. ** Subscription terms and conditions • A one-month subscription costs £899.99.
