The Federal Reserve’s Big Inflation Fight | LIVE STREAM

The Federal Reserve is presently engaged in a major battle to regain control over inflation. To that end, it is raising interest rates and reducing the size of its balance sheet at a pace that has seldom been experienced before. That has resulted in large financial market losses and a doubling in mortgage rates.

This event will evaluate the Fed’s chances of bringing inflation down to its 2 percent target while securing a soft economic landing. It will also consider the major risks involved and examine the impact of the Fed’s newfound monetary policy hawkishness on the world’s economic outlook, including the stress it is placing on emerging market debt.
