In this episode of the Perspective Prog. based on ‘Managing Inflation’. Based on the assessment of the current and evolving macroeconomic situation, RBI’s Monetary Policy Committee earlier this week decided to increase the policy repo rate under the liquidity adjustment facility by 40 basis points to 4.40 per cent with immediate effect. The MPC also decided to remain accommodative while focusing on withdrawal of accommodation to ensure that inflation remains within the target going forward, while supporting growth. The US central bank has also announced its biggest interest rate increase in more than two decades as it toughens its fight rising prices. Bank of England has also raised interest rates to their highest level in 13 years in a bid to tackle soaring inflation.
