The naming of Vergara Montes was supported by Chile’s manufacturing lobby, one of the country’s most important, who described the new president of the bank as a “great professional”, adding that the strength of the central bank is that it has “a great technical prestige”.

Vergara Montes who teaches Economics at the Catholic University spent ten years working for the Central bank, 1985 to 1995 and was named chief economist. He also has experience in the private sector as advisor and member of several boards. The banker has also worked for the World Bank, IMF, Inter American Development bank and several central banks from Latin America, East Europe, Africa and Asia.

why on earth nations like Chile still believes the “harvard” expert like Vergara Montes who has close ties the most crooked bank on earth (Goldman Sachs) is beyond me. the same bank and where the elites come from that is ready to explode the “western” banking system.

Anyone who is interested to outside the US who learn and hear what's really going on..listen to do this. It's not fear mongering, but the “party” just started and its frightning.
