A proactive Fed steps in to support growth
- Even as US economic activity slows, the US is likely to remain more resilient than other developed economies..
- The US Federal Reserve (Fed) cut its policy rate, citing more balanced risks between moderating inflation and softness in the labour market. Other central banks globally have also cut rates as inflation moderates.
- We expect global growth to remain broadly positive, albeit at a slower pace. In our view,the US is likely to account for a significant portion of this growth.
