On May 14, Susan Collins, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, stated that the Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates if inflationary pressures do not subside. "While this is not the most likely scenario in my predictions, I can envision a situation where certain policy tightening may be necessary to ensure that inflation returns to the 2% level in a timely and sustained manner." The outlook for FOMC monetary policy largely depends on the duration of the conflict in the Middle East, noting that the longer the conflict lasts, the greater the risks, particularly regarding inflation.

According to News.bitcoin, Johannes Gawaxab, the governor of the Bank of Namibia (BON), recently confirmed that the central bank is now planning to launch a CBDC. He confirmed the BON has already started researching CBDCs which, according to him, are now a “reality” that cannot be ignored. He said: “The number and value of cryptocurrencies have surged, raising the possibility of a financial world operating outside the control of governments and central banks. There is thus a need for central banks to have a clear digital currency agenda to reinforce Central Bank authority over money and maintain control over the payment system.” Concerning Namibia’s proposed digital currency agenda, Gawaxab is quoted that such an agenda should only be accepted if it’s a product of consultations between governments, financial institutions, and the general public. Meanwhile, the BON governor suggested that while the central bank is looking to launch the CBDC, the country’s policymakers should also be aware of the potential impact on financial stability that comes with such a digital currency launch.
