Event Detail
Will Inflation Force the Slowing or Reversal of Central Banks’ “Easy” Monetary Policy and Increase Risks of Economic Downturns?
Inflation is currently rising. Will it be sustained or transitory? Will global central banks address it? Will they abandon their decade-long “easy” monetary policy and manage down the size of their balance sheets even in a market repricing environment? Will their actions expose economies to economic downturns jeopardizing the recovery from the GFC and pandemic?
