To carry out their mandate in a changing economic and financial environment, central banks need to be agile, forward looking, and attuned to emerging risks to macroeconomic and financial stability. They must possess a comprehensive understanding of macroeconomic relationships, the function of financial markets, changes in payment systems, and international economic interactions. 

The Trailblazers in Central Banking Program is a one-week immersive program designed by the Asia School of Business to equip officials from the central banks with the knowledge, skills, and insights necessary to excel in their roles as the organisation's future leaders. To do so, the program builds on a combination of readings, group discussions, and faculty presentations to show how insights from economic theory and experiences in a variety of central banks can be applied to the respective central bank 

The 5-day in-person program at the Asia School of Business campus in Kuala Lumpur offers a unique opportunity for participants to learn from renowned central banking experts, engage in peer discussions, and apply insights to real-world scenarios.
