Governor's Blog

Governor's Blog

The Governor's Blog aims, above all, to provide an instructive and accessible forum for the dissemination of knowledge related to the monetary policy of the Eurosystem, of which the Central Bank of Malta is an integral member. In doing so, it seeks to enhance understanding of the principles, objectives and transmission of monetary policy decisions within the euro area. Beyond this core focus, the Blog also serves to explain more broadly the Central Bank of Malta's European, international and national roles and responsibilities, placing them within their wider economic and institutional context. It further offers a platform to communicate and clarify positions expressed by the Governor, contributing to informed public discourse on matters of relevance to monetary policy, financial stability and the broader economy. 

Alexander Demarco occupies the role of Governor since 1 January 2026. He is a member of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank, Governor for Malta at the International Monetary Fund, and Malta's Alternate Governor for the World Bank.
