Central bank independence refers to a central bank’s ability to formulate and implement monetary policy - such as setting interest rates and managing liquidity - without direct control or interference from the political leaders of a government. This autonomy is essential because monetary policy focuses on economic objectives over long-term horizons, while politicians often face pressure to prioritize short-term results tied to election cycles.
