The IMF And The International Monetary System: Lessons From The Crisis - Per Jacobsson Foundation Lecture By Axel Weber Former President Of The Deutsche Bundesbank, September 25, 2011

And it is also a special honour as I am the first German to deliver the lecture since Karl Otto Pöhl’s appearance in 1992. He was also a former president of the Bundesbank at that time and he talked about “a new monetary order for Europe” – a subject that has recently gained new relevance, as you all know.
