Speaking in advance of a week when policymakers will set borrowing costs in every member of the Group of Seven and across eight of the world’s 10 most-traded currency jurisdictions, his remarks effectively highlighted how so much of their response hinges on US President Donald Trump’s resolve to keep fighting it.\n\n“It really depends on how long the conflict lasts and how long the rise in the oil price will be sustained,” Shin said. “Of course if it’s a supply shock — certainly if it’s a temporary one — these are the textbook examples where you should look through and not react with monetary policy.”\nThe BIS will stay focused on the risks posed to fiscal sustainability by the current crisis, he said.\n“That is something which is going to be a very important topic for us to keep under review,” Shin told reporters. “The impact of a sustained rise in energy prices will have an effect on the real economy and the longer it lasts, of course, the larger that impact. And there will also be an impact on fiscal balances if the economies see the downturn.”\nSince the pandemic, policymakers have started to tout uncertainty more strongly in public communications, the BIS said in a research paper published alongside the quarterly report on Monday.\nMany central banks have moved away from descriptive guidance to instead present projections in different scenarios, often including rate paths, the BIS found. It cited analysis based on policy statements of 25 monetary institutions covering most of the world economy.\nUploaded by Arion Yeow","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.40.0","shortVersion":"4.40.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2620422152","isCrawlerRequest":true}
