N.B. Ten years ago, on 12 June 2015, I had written an Open Letter to the Bank of England governor, Mr. Mark Carney. A couple of days earlier, he had given a speech at the Mansion House in London. The speech had greatly resonated with me, a banker, speaking about values-led capitalism and the need to take action in the interest of the people and the common good.
His words and sentiments ring as true today as they did in 2015. This is why I wish to share it again with you.
But, before all that, time is now to celebrate the new prime minister of Canada:
Mark Carney, the eighth governor of the Bank of Canada from 2008 to 2013 and the 120th governor of the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020 to become Canada's next PM after a landslide Liberal leadership victory.
Mark Carney is introduced during the Liberal Party of Canada's leadership announcement in Ottawa, Ontario on March 9, 2025. “America is not Canada. And Canada never, ever, will be part of America in any way, shape or form,” Carney told supporters.-Photo Credit: Justin Tang/The Canadian Press/AP
