“For several years now, the Bank of Lithuania has participated in the joint policy decision-making of the Eurosystem. At the round table discussions, it is the best and most convincing economic arguments that define the monetary stance of the Eurosystem, regulatory interventions and the design of the future Eurozone. Thus, the Bank of Lithuania needs university graduates with broad, rigorous and up-to-date training in economics.”
