The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has unanimously reaffirmed its “Statement on Longer-Run Goals and Monetary Policy Strategy” during its annual organizational meeting this week. The statement, which outlines the FOMC’s approach to monetary policy, remains unchanged from the version adopted in August 2025.
According to the FOMC, “The reaffirmed statement is identical to the version adopted in August 2025. The Committee first adopted a similar statement in 2012.” This consensus statement serves as a guide for how the committee addresses issues related to inflation, employment, and other economic objectives.
The FOMC regularly reviews and updates its policy framework to ensure it reflects current economic conditions and long-term goals.
