Bowman: A Framework for Practical Monetary Policy Decision Making Good afternoon. I would like to thank Governor Jónsson for the invitation to take part in the Central Bank of Iceland's Reykjavík Economic Conference. It is a pleasure to be here in Reykjavík with you and to share my thoughts on formulating a practical approach to monetary policy decision making. As you know, the Federal Reserve conducts monetary policy to support a strong and stable economy. In doing so, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) pursues the congressionally mandated goals of maximum employment and price stability. The Fed uses a variety of tools to carry out its monetary policy strategy and implementation. Our primary monetary policy tool is the federal funds rate, which is a key interest rate for commercial bank overnight borrowing that influences other interest rates throughout financial markets and the economy. Lower interest rates reduce borrowing costs and tend to raise asset prices and wealth, thereby stimulating consumer spending and business investment—especially on vehicles and other durables goods, housing, and equipment and intangibles—and, ultimately, supporting employment. By stimulating demand, lower interest rates also have the potential to raise inflation. In contrast, higher interest rates generally exert a drag on economic activity and employment and tend to lower inflation. Over my tenure on the Board and the FOMC, we revised our monetary policy framework twice. While I appreciate that frameworks may evolve over time, I am pleased that the FOMC returned the framework to basic principles last year. Since joining the Board in 2018, the Committee has faced a number of significant economic challenges—including both very high inflation and unemployment, and many economic shocks. This experience has given me valuable perspective in assessing economic conditions and the balance of risks
