Ironically, the “inflation targeting” advocated by Greenspan’s nominated successor, Ben Bernanke, lies closer to ECB monetary policy than to the discretionary activism that the Fed has practiced during Greenspan’s long tenure.
讽刺的是，格林斯潘指定的继承人——本·伯南克（Ben Bernanke ）所提倡的“以通货膨胀为针对目标” 更接近于欧洲央行的货币政策，而非美联储在格林斯潘长期领导下所采取的无条件行动主义。
