European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said the autonomy of monetary authorities is “critically important,” warning that economies risk becoming dysfunctional when governments interfere with interest-rate decisions. In an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Lagarde emphasized that while central banks must remain accountable to elected bodies—citing the U.S. Congress and the European Parliament—they need operational independence to meet their mandates of price stability and financial‐system health.
