Queen Elizabeth II has approved an honorary knighthood for Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan because of his “outstanding contribution to global economic stability,” the British Treasury announced.
Greenspan will receive the award when he next visits Britain, probably this fall, a treasury official said.
