The Central Bank, analogous to the US Federal Reserve.
BCCR is the state institution that defines monetary and economic policy for the country. Similar to the Fed, BCCR works silently in the background, changing things here and there to shape the economy as it's needed. But, on occasion, something doesn't agree and the Central Bank finds itself at the heart of a public controversy.
