Jerome
Powell, US President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the Federal Reserve, said
he expected the central bank to continue monetary tightening and to ease
regulatory burdens on financial system. "If confirmed, I would strive,
along with my colleagues, to support the economy's continued progress toward
full recovery," said Powell in remarks to be delivered at his Senate
confirmation hearing on Tuesday, Xinhua reported. "We expect interest
rates to rise somewhat further and the size of our balance sheet to gradually
shrink," Powell said in the remarks which were released on Monday before
his hearing. He also noted that the central bank should be prepared to respond
decisively in response to crisis. In regard to regulatory reforms, Powell said
the central bank under his leadership will consider appropriate ways to ease
regulatory burdens on the financial system while preserving core reforms, such
as strong capital and liquidity requirements, stress testing and resolution
planning. In India, the expected rise in interest rates will be reflected and
equity market bulls are likely to be adversely affected to that extent. The
