A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is called spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(T x) ≤ Mr(x) for all xE, where r (·) denotes the spectral radius. We establish the equivalence of the following properties of a unital linear mapping T from a unital C* -algebra A into its centre:

(a) T is spectrally bounded;

(b) T is a spectrally bounded trace;

(c) T is a bounded trace.
