= Karl Brunner Distinguished Lecture Series =

In 2016, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) decided to establish an annual Karl Brunner Distinguished Lecture Series in memory of the internationally renowned Swiss economist Karl Brunner (1916–1989). The series features eminent monetary theory and policy thinkers whose research has been relevant to central banking. The scope of the Lecture Series reflects the attention Karl Brunner devoted to monetary economics, his belief in the need to advance theoretical and applied analysis in this field, and in particular his concern for the policy relevance of economic science.

The Karl Brunner Distinguished Lecture was delivered by Kenneth S. Rogoff in 2016, John B. Taylor in 2017 and Otmar Issing in 2018.
