Willem Buiter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Willem Hendrik Buiter (born September 26, 1949 in The Hague)[1] was a member of the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee from June 1997-May 2000. He joined the London School of Economics as a chair in the European Institute in September 2005.
He is also currently a contributor to the Financial Times, writing a blog entitled "Maverecon".
In April 2008, he wrote together with his wife Anne Sibert a paper about the situation of Icelandic banks for Landsbanki.[2] In mid July 2008, an updated version was presented to the government of Iceland.[3] The Icelandic interlocutors considered the paper to be too market-sensitive and it was agreed to keep it confidential.[3]
He is a national of the US and the UK.[4]
