PARIS, May 18 (Reuters) – The head of the German Central Bank Joachim Nagel said on Monday that central bankers can do “a lot more” to calm the financial markets and give them a positive momentum.
Nagel made the comments as he arrived for a meeting of Group of Seven finance ministers and central nakers in Paris.
