Saturday, February 4, 2023

A new beginning often brings with it new challenges, but it also presents us with plenty of opportunities.

Key Points: 
  • A new beginning often brings with it new challenges, but it also presents us with plenty of opportunities.
  • First, with support for an open global trading order on the wane, we are facing new types of shocks to the global economy.
  • For the past few decades, open trade has supported global growth by allowing countries to “rotate” demand during slumps.
  • [2] But now it could become a source of volatility.But now it could become a source of volatility.
  • This was evident during the British Empire in the 19
    th century, as it was with American support in the wake of the Cold War.
  • [3]
    However, major economies – led by the United States and China – are now increasingly using trade to limit the ambitions of geopolitical rivals.
  • The US Inflation Reduction Act, for example, is deliberately aimed at “reshoring” production and reducing the country’s reliance on strategic imports like batteries.
  • [5] China is also seeking to reduce its own dependence on the rest of the world.
  • With the security of supply for critical inputs no longer guaranteed, we are likely to see a new “scramble for resources”.
  • As this new global map takes shape, we enter 2023 facing three big challenges.
  • Inflation in Europe is far too high, partly due to our vulnerability to the changing geopolitics of energy.
  • As we head into 2023, a changing world brings with it new challenges, but also opportunities.

That is why we are doing whatever is necessary to bring inflation back to our medium-term target of 2%.

Key Points: 
  • That is why we are doing whatever is necessary to bring inflation back to our medium-term target of 2%.
  • In a speech that I gave in July 2021, I presented a series of indicators pointing towards a rise in inflation.
  • For a long time, we believed that many of the causes of inflation would vanish over time.
  • After the economy reopened, demand rapidly took off and met a relatively inelastic supply, exacerbated by supply chain disruptions.
  • *
    Indeed, but many people underestimated the extent of it; they thought that the supply chain disruptions would be resolved more quickly.
  • It was especially concerning that these price increases gradually broadened across the entire basket of goods.
  • Not only energy prices rose steeply, but also core inflation, that is inflation stripped of the volatile prices for energy and food.
  • By that time, it was clear to everyone that inflation would be more persistent.
  • You have an academic background, you were a professor on the German Council of Economic Experts.
  • Unlike in the United States, however, the disruptions in the euro area were predominantly on the supply side.
  • That makes it harder for monetary policy, as it cannot directly remove the causes for the price increase.
  • But we are now seeing a whole series of such shocks, which raises the risk of second-round effects.
  • At the same time, the robust labour market, fiscal policy and the savings accumulated during the pandemic are supporting demand.
  • There was a concern that premature action by monetary policy might unnecessarily push the economy into another recession.
  • That is why we are applying flexibility in reinvesting redemptions coming due in the pandemic emergency purchase programme (PEPP).
  • *Since October the ECB has been taking climate criteria into account when reinvesting funds from its corporate bond purchases.
  • In order to counteract this, we now take into account climate criteria when reinvesting funds from maturing bonds.
