Bringing The Statement On Longer-Run Goals And Monetary Policy Strategy Into Alignment With Longer-Run Changes In The Economy, Federal Reserve Governor Lael Brainard - At "How The Fed Will Respond To The COVID-19 Recession In An Era Of Low Rates And Low Inflation," An Event Hosted By The Hutchins Center On Fiscal And Monetary Policy At The Brookings Institution, Washington, D.C. (Via Webcast)
Date 01/09/2020
I want to thank David Wessel for hosting this event. It is an honor to be here with Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen, who pioneered the original Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy in 2012. It is a pleasure to discuss the new statement, unanimously approved by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) last week.1 By bringing our longer-run goals and strategy into alignment with key longer-run changes in the economy, the new statement will strengthen our support for the recovery. In my view, the new statement breaks important ground and will serve the country well as we respond to the economic repercussions of the COVID-19 crisis.

BIS: Data Vs Collateral
Date 01/09/2020
Summary
Focus
Collateral is used in debt contracts to mitigate the difficulties ("agency problems") that arise when the lender's knowledge of the borrower is incomplete ("asymmetric information"). Banks usually require borrowers to pledge tangible assets, such as real estate, to help offset such problems in credit assessment, or to reduce moral hazard and enforcement problems. By contrast, large technology firms ("big techs") can use massive amounts of data ("big data") to better assess firms' creditworthiness. These capabilities could help to reduce the importance of collateral in solving asymmetric information problems in credit markets.
