Following a loose monetary policy for a decade, the Federal Reserve will probably increase their interest rates to a “slightly restrictive” sentiment in the upcoming years as unemployment decline and inflation rises, said by a Fed official on Wednesday. Last month, the rate hike forecast was adjusted to 3.4 percent for 2020 by the U.S. central bank officials and the New York Fed President William Dudley is one of them. It was augmented about a full half of the percentage point, higher than the neutral present estimate of 3 percent. The policy will be a bit restrictive in the years to come, said by Dudley as a permanent voter for a long-time on monetary policy who is about to leave the Federal Reserve in two months. Once again, he supports the gradual rate hike while the inflation target remains below the two percent target and the presumed price will probably rise higher. Besides the rate hike in the previous month, there is an expected of two or three more increase before year end. Last month, forecasts imply that Fed anticipates recent fiscal stimulus to improve economic growth for two years. However, this did not give any clearly permanent support to the economy. With the economic events such as a drop in unemployment and higher inflation above the Fed target, the central banks respond with higher interest rates to 3.4 percent in reference to the forecasts. Dudley said at Lehman College in the Bronx that a “gradual” course is suitable for interest rates despite the low unemployment and inflation below the two percent target. In this case, a tighter monetary policy is not convincing. Fed should not be complacent with the current rates and should keep moving towards a neutral stance, he added.
