Abstract

Ben Bernanke, the former chair of the United States Federal Reserve, was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics in 2022, which he shared with two other economists. He received the award primarily on the basis of a 1983 paper on the behavior of banks during the Depression. His research was influential in handling the 2008 financial crisis.
