SARB focuses on lowering inflation expectations

In this podcast, STANLIB’s Chief Economist, Kevin Lings, focuses on the latest decisions by the US and SA central banks to hold interest rates unchanged. In SA the decision reflects the SARB’s determination to lower inflation expectations, as well as risks to inflation from food and energy. In the US, the decision was widely expected. Instead, attention focused on the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair and what it means for monetary policy. You can listen to the podcast [here].
