[NEW YORK] Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago President Austan Goolsbee said on Thursday that central bank independence is very important for controlling inflation.

He added there is “a similar crisis of public trust today in all of our institutions,” while noting Fed officials take their mission very seriously. REUTERS
