‘Goede data, en goede statistieken gebaseerd op die data, zijn essentieel om weloverwogen beslissingen te nemen in een complexe wereld en een moderne economie,’ zei Olaf Sleijpen bij de opening van het IFC Satellite Seminar over vraagstukken rond duurzaamheidsdata.
A warm welcome to you all, welcome to De Nederlandsche Bank. And thank you for giving me the opportunity to come to the office on a Saturday. I must say I don’t do this very often, except on very special occasions. And this is a very special occasion. We are proud to host the Satellite Seminar of the Irving Fischer Committee on Sustainability data issues and central banks’ experience.
And I think it is rather fitting to hold this seminar on World Animal Day. Because in a way statisticians are like animals. There are many different species of you, you are essential to the economic ecosystem, but you are not always treated very well. And some of you are even under threat from some nasty examples of Homo sapiens.
