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.
