Fed’s Mester: We’re quite a while away from a change in policy stance

Additional takeaways

“How effective we are at getting people vaccinated is very important.”

“Comfortable with monetary policy at the moment.”

“Asset purchases will be tapered once the Fed is ready to make changes, not reduced suddenly.”

“It’s very premature to think we’re getting to the point to change our policy stance.”

“We’re quite a while away from a change in the policy stance.”
