Ben Bernanke, Now and Then

At American Economic Association, Sunday

'We must be especially vigilant in ensuring that the recent
experiences are not repeated....if adequate [reguatory]
reforms are not made, or if they are made but prove
insufficient to prevent dangerous buildups of financial risks,
we must remain open to using monetary policy as a
supplementary tool for addressing those risks.'

As Fed governor, 2002

'Understandably, as a society, we would like to find ways to
mitigate the potential instabilities associated with
asset-price booms and busts. Monetary policy is not a useful
tool for achieving this objective, however.'
