#PowellRemarks The goal of the Federal Reserve is to ensure maximum employment and stable inflation at a long-term level of 2%, as stated in the agency's materials. Although uncertainty regarding economic prospects has decreased, it remains high. The Federal Reserve notes that it is "carefully monitoring the risks that could hinder the achievement of the agency's two main goals - full employment and price stability."

The regulator confirmed that it will continue to reduce its portfolio of Treasury securities, quasi-government agency bonds, and mortgage-backed securities. The Federal Reserve also indicated that when assessing the need for further changes in monetary policy, it will consider incoming data, economic forecasts, and the balance of risks.
