"Our annual Central Banker Report cards analyze which countries have sound leadership at the economic helm, showcasing policy stances that work", said Joseph Giarraputo, the publisher and the editor-in-chief of Global Finance. "Even in good times, central bankers face an array of challenges. Today, with a global health crisis sweeping the world, they are squeezed between political and practical realities like they never have before", mentioned the publisher of Global Finance. 

The 2020 Central Banker Report Cards assessed more than 90 central bankers. The full report during the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank will be published in the October issue of The Global Finance, and will also be posted on GFMag.com.

This year the Governor of the Central Bank of the Czech Republic (Jiri Rusnok), as well as Israel (Emir Jaron), Iceland (Asgeir Johnson), Saudi Arabia (Ahmed Alkholifei), the US (Jerome Powell) and heads of other central banks are along with Koba Gvenetadze in this category.
