policymakers' ability to stimulate growth without causing inflation. While asset values zoomed,

market and inflation, and for the balance of risks to the outlook. At the same time, do you think that

entrepreneurship and its science- and technology-driven economy. Dr. Fischer also has served in
senior positions at the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the Bank of Israel and the
Federal Reserve, where he shaped financial policy that promoted stability and growth. Mr. Fischer
said the U.S. economy “has done pretty well” since the dismal May employment report showed a
sharp slowdown in job growth. He served as associate general counsel of the SEC in the 1970s, and
chairman of the SEC's Advisory Committee on Financial Reporting in 2007-08. O'Hanley, Chairman

System. But further declines in oil prices and increases in the foreign exchange value of the dollar
suggested that inflation would likely remain low for somewhat longer than had been previously
expected before moving back to 2 percent. If these developments lead to a persistent tightening of
financial conditions, they could signal a slowing in the global economy that could affect growth and
inflation in the United States. He has also served as chief economist at the World Bank, and was
nominated as Vice-Chairman of the US Federal Reserve Board of Governors in 2014 by United
States President Barack Obama. On January 10, 2014, United States President Barack Obama
