NEW YORK FED'S WILLIAMS: FED CAN STILL CUT RATES IN THE NEAR TERM GIVEN CURRENT POLICY IS MODESTLY RESTRICTIVE WILLIAMS: INFLATION PROGRESS HAS STALLED, BUT SHOULD BE ON TRACK TO 2% IN 2027 *FED'S WILLIAMS STILL SEES ROOM FOR A NEAR-TERM RATE CUT Williams: Navigating Unpredictable Terrain Good morning. It’s a pleasure be here to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Central Bank of Chile. The topic of my remarks today is inflation targeting, which is both an important part of Chile’s central banking history and a core foundation of successful monetary policy. Most central banks around the world have adopted inflation targeting regimes over the past 35 years, and Chile was among those leading the way. Although specifics vary across jurisdictions, these strategies share three principles: independence and accountability, transparency and the clear communication of an inflation target, and well-anchored inflation expectations, gained from the credibility that central banks build over time.1 Today I will discuss the success of inflation targeting strategies in helping central banks achieve price stability and better economic outcomes. I’ll also talk about how these strategies were critically important in managing uncertainty after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic—and how they helped countries bring inflation down while minimizing disruptions to financial markets and economies.
