Federal Reserve (Fed) Bank of Philadelphia President Anna Paulson spoke about the view from the Reserve Bank of Philadelphia of the United States (US) economy at the National Association for Business Economics Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, stating that she doesn’t see tariffs causing sustained inflation.
Key takeaways
I don’t see tariffs causing sustained inflation.
I see current monetary policy as modestly restrictive.
I see narrow base of support for growth and labor market.
Labor market risks increasing, but not outrageously.
We will be better positioned to go slowly in the future if we adjust policy in the near term.
2026 will see growth near potential, and inflation rising and then subsiding.
The latest available data suggest an economy that is doing pretty well, although inflation remains elevated.”
