Regulation is necessary, particularly in a sector, like the banking sector, which exposes countries and people to a risk.
Interpretation
Regulation is crucial for managing risks in the banking sector to protect both nations and individuals.
Christine Lagarde emphasizes the importance of regulation in the banking sector, highlighting that the financial system poses risks to both countries and individuals. Proper oversight and rules are essential to ensure stability, protect consumers, and prevent financial crises that could have far-reaching consequences.
In practice
In a speech on financial reform, I might say, 'As Christine Lagarde wisely pointed out, regulation is necessary in the banking sector to mitigate risks.'
In the 2013 Economists Program, we hired 51 percent women, 49 percent men. And the reason for that is that we have a draft from all over the world, and we've hired, for instance, in that group, a good number of Chinese economists - highly qualified, all Ph.D.s from the best universities of the world. And guess what? They're all women.
Tackling climate change is a collective endeavour, it means collective accountability and it's not too late

You know, when I sit in meetings and things are very tense and people take things extremely seriously and they invest a lot of their ego, I sometimes think to myself, 'Come on, you know, there's life and there's death and there is love.' And all of that ego business is nonsense compared to that.
Very often as a little girl, then as a young woman, I have suffered my lot of discrimination. I was brought up with brothers; I grew up in a boys' world. You have to elbow your way in. When you come with that sentiment of having been in a minority for a long period of time, then you are much more attentive to minorities.
There's really no precedent for someone like me gaining clout in the space that I'm in - a black woman directing films in Hollywood.

A good jockey doesn't need orders and a bad jockey couldn't carry them out anyway; so it's best not to give them any.
You have to lose yourself in the team and you have to lose yourself in the game
Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It's being able to take it as well as dish it out. That's the only way you're going to get respect from the players.
