IBPS PO/MT-VIII PRELIMS - Model Test 25 Question Paper
Read the following passage carefully and answer the question Certain-words/ phrases are given in bold to
help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
Since cutting short-term interest rates almost to zero early in the 2008 global recession, central banks
including the Fed have been using clumsy implements During the crisis Quantitative Easing (OE) (printing
money to buy bonds), to pump capital into an economy has come out of the bag most often But QE involves
meddling in markets on a worrying scale Central bankers were also honing a new strategy: attempting to
boost confidence by providing forward guidance’ - giving a clearer steer on their future plans. But how can
central banks deploy this technique more effectively 7 Since short-term interest rates fell to zero, the Fed
has leaned more heavily on forward guidance Improved communication was a priority even before the crisis,
but the crisis accelerated the reliance ori communication as a means to stimulate the economy Early in the-
recovery the Fed said that the interest rates would remain near zero for an extended period and it later tied
eventual rises to specific dates. Now both the Fed and the Bank of England link increases to economic
conditions. Unemployment is falling. The Fed says it will not raise rates until unemployment has fallen at
least to 6.5 percent, provided that short-term inflation is no higher than 2.5 percent But this formula should
be amended The main difficulty in using talk about the future to perk up growth is that markets must believe
the rates will stay close to zero even as growth and inflation pick up thus making current borrowing and
investment more attractive than they otherwise would be. This will put central banks in an awkward position:
to get the economy moving they must persuade markets that they will tolerate higher inflation This is not far-
fetched Very low inflation could be the harbinger of deflation-falling wages and prices which discourage
investment Inflation below the central bank’s target generates unwanted unemployment, even if deflation is
avoided
The problem is that central banks have an incentive to renege on promises ; to allow higher inflation,
rendering them less credible Making the promise if it is believed should boost economic activity But once tne
economy is chugging along, the temptation is to try to get the best of ootn worlds, by raising rates before
prices go up And if markets doubt that central banks will really embrace higher inflation, then expectations
will not adjust and the real interest rate will not fall. Central banks should however simulate several different
policies to gauge which brings down unemployment the most. A simple commitment to keep rates low even
after inflation tops the Fed’s current target of 2 percent, if credible will work wonders America’s
unemployment would drop below 6 percent a year earlier than currently projected, but such a sweeping
pledge may not be believed. Instead promising to keep rates low until unemployment reaches a certain
threshold-as the Fed is currently- might be more credible, in that it sets a clear limit on the central bank’s
new found permissiveness. A more radical option would be to raise the Fed’s target for inflation from 2
percent to 3 percent. That would reduce unemployment faster than setting unemployment thresholds
although it would presumably stir up even more opposition among monetary hawks But for any new goal to
work the public must understand and believe it If markets doubt the Fed’s commitment to a 3 percent
inflation target then new guidance could prove counter-productive, a lesson which the new Chair of the Fed
must keep in mind.

8. What does the author want to convey through the phrase “But once the economy is chugging along, the
temptation is to get the best of both worlds” ?
Central banks withdraw their regulatory measures at the first indication of economic recovery.
Once the economy has recovered sufficiently, markets return to old risky practices and try to get
higher returns as well as take advantage of fiscal stimulus
When the economy is doing well governments often interfere in the functioning of central banks in
order to claim credit and introduce populist measures
Once economic growth picks up central banks will be prompted to change policies, to enjoy the
benefits of high rate of inflation and high rate of interest.
Central banks will continue to interfere in the economy despite the market
