November 10, 2016
Low interest rates are likely to be the norm over the next
two to three years, President James Bullard told those
attending Commerce Bank’s annual economic breakfast in
St. Louis. He also explained the St. Louis Fed's new regimebased approach to near-term U.S. macroeconomic and
monetary policy projections. In doing so, he deconstructed
an equation to show that an increase of 25 basis points
(one-quarter of a percent) in the federal funds rate target
over the forecast horizon would be appropriate monetary
policy for the current macroeconomic "regime."
