From George Pirani<\/span> The annual economic policy symposium Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City<\/strong>kept in the area Jackson Hole<\/strong> in Wyoming, begins Thursday, August 24th and will run through August 26th.<\/p>\n The meeting of government experts and academics on the subject of economics, including many central bankers from around the world, is this year more awaited by the financial markets than ever such a complex historical moment for the global economy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n There is great interest, particularly in the words of Jerome H Powell<\/strong>, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, to understand the Fed’s next steps in raising interest rates to curb runaway inflation. This year’s meeting is entitled “Structural Changes in the World Economy”.<\/p>\n The congress took place for the first time in 1978 and at that time already gained special importance because it served to deal with urgent economic issues. It is also often the stage for important announcements and the presentation of relevant ideas on the global financial landscape. Like last year, when Powell shocked financial markets by firmly announcing that the Federal Reserve will do so faced inflation with determination<\/strong>regardless of the circumstances.<\/p>\n Now, a year later, inflation has fallen significantly to two-thirds of its previous level. Meanwhile, the US economy continues to expand but the Fed appears to be on the right track bring the price increase back to the target of 2% per year<\/strong>The way ahead remains characterized by uncertainty and risks.<\/p>\n Investors are therefore eagerly awaiting the Jackson Hole Symposium, where Jerome Powell is expected to speak Friday, August 25 from 10.05<\/strong> (16:05 GMT) which will be the climax as investors seek clarity on the economic outlook and the future direction of interest rates.<\/p>\n
